Dear Friends,

In 2012 a new phenomenon elbowed its way into the midst of the opening days of the Christmas shopping season: #GivingTuesday. The initiative is largely a social media response to the commercialization and consumerism of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and aims to reverse the delirium of those cultural trends through a sobering, yet simple antidote: Giving.

Giving Tuesday (the Tuesday after Thanksgiving) offers nonprofit organizations a social media platform to raise funds for their initiatives, strengthen volunteer recruitment, and raise awareness for the needs of the organizations. This relatively new phenomenon mirrors the ancient tradition of stewardship in the Catholic Church.

St. Mary’s Parish is your spiritual home, and you are an integral part of our family! Your giving tuesday gift to St. Mary’s is an investment of your “treasure” in everything we do here. If you would like to donate please fill out the form below or contact the parish office. We strive day in and day out to be the best stewards of your investment - to show you what we have done with the investment of your treasure, and then share what we hope to accomplish with you for the glory of God and the salvation of souls.
