Help Saint Matthew by putting your Summer offering on Auto Pilot
In previous articles on SIMPLY GIVING we emphasized the convenience for the parishioners. However, we are coming off a very severe winter that reduced attendance at worship. It is worth noting that on those Sundays of reduced attendance the offering was also greatly reduced-except for those members who signed up for SIMPLY GIVING. Their offerings were received even if they were not in attendance and therefore they helped maintain a healthy cash flow for meeting the obligations of the congregation.
Now we have summer approaching and many of us will be vacationing and if we aren’t signed up for SIMPLY GIVING there will be further difficulties for our treasurer as he meets the financial obligations of the church.
So our message is simple, please sign up for SIMPLY GIVING. There are forms in the information rack in the foyer, or see Kim in the office. —Jack Horton
