In reviewing our records we would like to update info regarding the tithing envelopes everyone is sent each month. If you no longer are using the envelopes and you want to cut back on the amount (i.e. one for the month instead of weekly), or if you just put a check in the basket at Mass, please notify the Parish Office. This will help our parish with the rising cost of postage.
