Each year, our parish has an annual Stewardship Renewal in November. As one liturgical year ends and the next begins, we give our parishioners the opportunity to make their financial pledge once again to the parish. If you would like to speak to someone directly, contact our Director of Stewardship, Margie Burton, at ext. 260, or our Coordinator of Stewardship, Olga Rodriguez, at ext. 275.
What percentage of your income do you give now? What should your sacrificial giving goal be? The chart below can help you move gradually toward a goal for your household. First, find your household income at the left hand of the chart. Then move across the same line to find the weekly contribution you currently average. Moving straight up the chart, you will find what percentage of your income you are currently giving to the parish. Please consider taking a step to the right – to the next level of giving. For example, if you are presently giving 2% to the parish, please consider giving 3% in the coming year. Also, please consider setting your eventual goal at the biblical “tithe” level of 10% (e.g. 5% to the parish and 5% to Diocesan and other charities). It may take a few years to get to that level, but it is a worthy and rewarding goal to strive for as you advance on your stewardship journey.
