Automated Giving

Many Parishes in our Area have begun offering Automated Donations via the Parish Pay System to their parishioners.  Parish In Areas

The Parishes offer this method to respond the the growing needs of parishioners who like to utilize electronic bill payment for their many households needs, while at the same time reducing the operating expenses of the Parish in collecting and tabulating donations.

We request that you consider utilizing a new and easier way to support our parish… Automated Giving.

What is Automated Giving? An Electronic means of support for St. Patrick’s instead of weekly collections and envelopes.  The ParishPay program will collect monthly contributions from your Checking, Saving, or Credit card account. There is NO cost for you to participate in the program.

What are the benefits for You? 

  • Simplified On-line Enrollment at     ParishPay
    Managing your account through ParishPay is easy.

  • Allows you to plan your giving, in the same way you budget your other financial commitments.

  • If you are out of town, vacation, ill, etc, your donation will be based on the Monthly Offering you have selected via the system.

  • Easily adjust your automated contribution (up or down) via a secure website access.

  • You no longer need to write a check every week.

  • How does it relate to the use of the weekly envelopes?
    Participation in the Automated Giving Program will replace your weekly envelopes.

  • If feel uncomfortable not having something to physically drop into the collection basket.
    Special donation slips are available for those enrolled in the automated giving program to be dropped into the collection basket, should you wish.

  • What about Special Collections? You can specify your giving level for Special Collections and special celebration dates (e.g., Christmas, Easter) when you join the Automated Giving Program, or anytime thereafter.

  • Also available for the Bicentennial Campaign – for new pledges, or payments on existing pledges.
