Frequently Asked Questions about the Electronic Giving Program

It is an electronic offering program for our parishioners who are given the opportunity to sign up to have their offering conveniently transferred from their credit card or checking/savings account into the parish's bank account every month.

Why use electronic giving?
Today, people are willing to have money transferred from their bank accounts to pay insurance premiums, utility bills, mortgages, fitness memberships, and more. The reason is convenience, and the certainty that a payment won't be skipped. For the same reasons, the Electronic Giving Program benefits those who want to faithfully and consistently provide their offerings to the parish.

How often will I be able to give electronically?
Your account will be debited on the 5th of each month. If the 5th falls on a weekend or holiday, the debit will occur on the next business day. Accounts can be debited monthly, semi-monthly or quarterly – or just one time.

Can I change the amount of my offering transfer?
Yes, you may do so by calling the parish office at (530) 677-3234. Additional gifts may be placed in the offering baskets at Mass.

Can I designate where my donations will go?
Yes, using the drop-down menu you can designate your donations to the weekly collection or to the Building Fund.

What are the benefits?
Parishioners who work on weekends, go away on vacation, are out of town on Sundays or are no longer able to attend church due to health reasons can stay financially connected to the church. Parishioners won't have to worry about forgetting their envelopes. Transfer giving makes it easier to manage our budget because the parish can rely on guaranteed income every month.
