St Timothy’s Sunday Pew Collection & Online Giving
On-line Giving is available on our website www.sttimothychurch.com, Click on On-line giving. Great to use your credit cards
for those points. Pay for St Timothy’s donations, Special Collection, Bible Studies, Rel Ed, Youth Ministry, plus donations to all fund raisers. See page
in this bulletin with parish & special collections list.
If you wish to setup online giving, you can set up to give weekly, monthly or yearly and it will automatically deduct at date
you request. You can use debit or credit cards, and if you get points that is nice too.
Funds on deposit (Building Fund) $357,820 for major repairs
Because deposits go into separate accounts, it would greatly help if you would write separate checks for each donation and not
lump multiple donations into one check. Many Thanks.
