CHARITY AND STEWARDSHIP APPEAL (CSA/DDP) begins this weekend. Our parish goal is $27.020, of which we receive rebates of 40% to support our school; we also receive 100% of donations over goal. This is a considerable part of our budget each year.   We have donation cards for all parishioners, preprinted by the Diocese. We placed these cards into envelopes with your names and addresses.

Please pick up your envelope from the back of Church (parish center) and return it to us with your donation in the next week or two, and we will send it in for you. (All checks should be payable to the “Charity and Stewardship Appeal” or “CSA”).

     If you wish to give electronically, see the instructions below.  The Diocesan website has changed to a platform that’s easier to use.

     CSA26 Online Giving Instructions:  Create your Pledge or Gift Online: You can set up your online pledge with multiple payments, a one-time payment or recurring payments. If you choose this method, you do not need to return your pledge card.

Set up your gift by choosing a One-Time, Pledge, or Recurring. 

• “One-Time” – will complete your gift in a single payment by selecting or entering your total gift amount
• “Pledge” – allows you to pay over several months. (Please note: CSA26 ends in April 30, 2027. Selecting Pledge will only offer payment options within that appeal timeline. To make gifts for a longer period, please choose “Recurring”.)

•          Select your preferred frequency and the Installment Amount will calculate based on the remaining months in CSA26.
• “Recurring” – is used to set up gifts that continue indefinitely. All gifts received by April 30, 2027 will count toward CSA26. After that, gifts will count toward your parish’s CSA27 goal. (Recurring gifts can be paused or cancelled at any time.)
• Select / enter the amount you want to give in each gift. Then, select the frequency of your gift
• For all methods: Select your home parish – this ensures your parish gets credit for your gift toward their CSA goal.

The Society's nearly 100,000 trained volunteers in the United States provided 17.5 million hours of volunteer service in 2016, helping more than 20.9 million people through visits to homes, prisons and hospitals at a value of more than $1 billion dollars. 

During Pope Francis’ recent visit, he reached Christians and non-Christians alike with his message of helping others. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul has been putting these words into practice for more than170 years. SVdP is truly volunteer driven with a volunteer to staff ratio of 16 to 1.
