Parish Offering Envelopes
Parish offering envelopes are mailed to each registered parishioner every two months from Our Sunday Visitor. Each parishioner is assigned an envelope number that is used to record each parishioner's contributions. It is important that you use this envelope, or write your envelope number on your check, if you wish to receive a statement at the end of the year showing your contribution totals.

Catholic Ministries Appeal
Catholic Ministries Appeal (formally Fruitful Harvest) is a yearly diocesan campaign. Monies from this campaign help fund the diocesan budget, which in turn supports many programs that serve our parish and diocese. All parishioners are encouraged to support the Catholic Ministries Appeal. To learn more about the current Catholic MInistires Appeal or to give online, click the link on the right.
