STEWARDSHIP: THOUGHTS ON GIVING
"Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one's life does not consist of possessions."
Luke 12:15

The Gospel message today is so contrary to our modern culture where advertising continually tries to convince us that our value lies in the many things we possess. Jesus showed us that our true value lies in the way we live our lives. He challenges us to not store up or hoard material possessions. Rather, strive to be rich in that which matters to God.

Deductibility of Your Contributions

Due to recent changes in the tax laws, beginning with contributions made in 2007, parishioners (those who itemize their tax returns) will no longer be able to deduct contributions to the parish unless they maintain a bank record or written contribution statement from the parish. If you wish to ensure deductibility of your contributions to the parish, please use a check, direct deposit from your bank account, or your parish envelopes. The parish will track contributions made using parish envelopes, and will, upon request, produce a written statement of contributions made during 2007. Canceled checks and other bank records are also sufficient documentation. The parish cannot track cash contributions not in parish envelopes.
