Automated Giving Program

 

        We thank those in our parish who are participating in the Automated Giving Program.  Participation in this program simplifies one’s life as you designate a certain level of giving, and there is no longer a need to fill out a check or look for cash to place in a weekly envelope.  This option also allows your gift to be received by the parish even if you are away for the weekend.  And finally, this option is more secure than cash. 

Parishioners are participating in this type of giving in one of two ways: electronic checking or ACH.  In the case of those parishioners who have checking accounts with electronic checking, the option is exercised to have a check sent weekly from their bank to St. Williams.  These checks are received and included in the Sunday Collection.  The second option some parishioners have chosen is the ACH option.  In this case, parishioners fill out a form below or pick it up at the rectory.  This form allows one to indicate the level of one’s monthly gift to the Church and gives permission for this gift to be drawn from a checking or savings account.  A voided check or deposit slip provides the rectory with the necessary information to initiate the transaction.
