parish stewardship
|
At Our Lady Queen of Heaven Parish, there are many ways for you to give of your time and talents. You may want to serve as a reader at Mass, a musician, a Mass server, an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, an usher, helping to bring Holy Communion to the homebound, or assisting with decorating the church—whatever fits your unique gifts and interests! Contact the pastor or the parish office if you're interesting in helping in any capacity.
To make financial stewardship easy, OLQH offers all parishioners the opportunity to set up automatic deposits of your weekly/monthly church contributions (known as ACH Direct Debit). Many churches are using direct debit already and parishioners find this to be a convenient, safe, and efficient method of handling their parish support. Simply fill out an Authorization Form and bring it to the parish office to get started. |
You may donate online by using the button above. Please note that there is a 3% reduction to the parish for the use of this service. However, if this is the most convenient way for you to make an offering at this time, please do not hesitate to use this method. Thank you for your continued generosity.
