Saint Paul’s is pleased to announce the introduction of an electronic option for making regular offerings. Contributions can now be debited automatically from your checking or savings account. Our new electronic giving program offers convenience for you and much-needed donation consistency for our congregation. 
If you are currently giving on a weekly basis, you will no longer need to write out 52 checks a year or prepare 52 envelopes. (This is also safer than carrying cash to church.) You can also set up a different frequency (monthly, biweekly, etc.) if you give according to such a schedule. And, when travel, illness or other circumstances prevent you from attending services, this program will allow your weekly offerings to continue on an uninterrupted basis. 
You would still be able to participate in the collection of the offering if you desire. Write “I give electronically” on the outside of an envelope and place it in the offering plate, or contact the church office to request “I give electronically” cards to drop in the offering plate.
These secure donation services, which Saint Paul’s is receiving without the normal start-up fees for the first year, are provided by Vanco Services, LLC. Vanco processes electronic donations for thousands of churches and nonprofit organizations.
