Do the right thing. It will gratify some people and astound the rest. - Mark Twain
Did you know?
There is much evidence that the Gospel of Matthew was written after 70AD and the fall of Jerusalem from a place outside Palestine by a well educated Jew. He is probably not the apostle Matthew and not an eyewitness because of the extensive
borrowings from the Gospel of Mark, and with a number of historical and geographic inaccuracies. These however, do not mar the
essence of the Gospel message.
Credit Cards & EFT (electronic funds transfer)
You can use VISA, Mastercard or EFT (electronic funds transfer) for your weekly or monthly donations and for contributions to any of our special projects or ministries. Please contact Lauren in the office at 722-5490 for an authorization form for either of these programs.

Some may hesitate to authorize electronic giving because there is no offering to be placed in the collection basket. With the electronic donor cards available in the foyer, people who have chosen electronic giving may use a card as a symbol of their preferred method of giving. At the end of Mass the cards will be returned to the foyer to be used at the next Mass.
