Dear E-giver,
As we approach Christmas I, write to thank you for your generous and regular contribution to St. Mary’s Church through E-Giving, which provides us with a steady flow of income for our parish expenses. I also write to remind you (and myself!) that since Christmas is not on a Sunday, it is necessary to designate your E-Giving contribution, unless you choose to use the envelope system at Christmas time.
I include myself in this message because, although I designate a specific amount to be given by E-Giving for each Sunday, I do not do the same for second collections, which means that I sometimes miss them. Given the importance of the Christmas collections (there are two) for our parish budget, I would be most grateful if you would take the time to designate the amount you will give at Christmas by E-Giving. I promise to do the same.
Below are some brief instructions on how to access both the first and second Christmas collections through our WeShare website.
• Go to the
St. Mary’s website and click on the blue E-giving icon on our home page.
• Once you are directed to our
E-giving page, click on “Donate Now”
• Under “Events and Collections” there are two Christmas collection icons; one for each of the two Christmas collections.
• Click on “Make a Donation” and choose either a recurring or a one-time donation. If you choose one-time donation, your donation will be withdrawn at that time. This process must be followed for each collection.
