Opportunities for Giving

Please consider the following gift methods when making your committment:

Six-Month Pledge
We are asking every parishioner to consider a six-month pledge to the Bishop’s Annual
Appeal. Monthly reminders will be mailed from the Diocesan Office to assist you in fulfilling your pledge.

Recurring Gift
Make a larger gift by making smaller payments! Consider making a recurring gift via electronic funds
transfer, an automatic credit card transaction, or by setting up your online banking system to make a recurring payment. Continue indefinitely and cancel at anytime.

Gift of Securities
Many parishioners prefer making a gift of securities because they will receive the full value of the securities
as the gift value and pay no capital gains tax. Please consult your personal tax advisor regarding the special rules for gifts of appreciated property.

Matching Gifts
Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match charitable contributions made by their
employees. Please contact the personnel office at your place of employment for specific information to ensure that your gift will be eligible for a match.

Bequests
Remember the Bishop’s Annual Appeal in your will. This may provide your estate with a federal and
estate tax advantage.
