Please note that if you are already giving electronically, we have now available laminated cards you can drop into the collection basked to encourage other parishioners to use this method of giving and for you to still put something into the collection basket. These cards can be found by the main entrance, on a small container on each side. Please see picture below of laminated card:

"As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace"
1 Peter 4:10
Dear Parishioner,
Madonna del Sasso Church is pleased to announce the introduction of an electronic option for making regular offerings. Weekly contributions can now be debited automatically from your checking or savings account or processed using your credit or debit card. Our new electronic giving program offers convenience for you and much-needed donation consistency for our congregation. We will now be offering this option like many other parishes in the diocese.
For example if you are currently giving on a weekly basis by check, you will no longer need to write out 52 checks a year or prepare 52 envelopes. And, when travel, illness or other circumstances prevent you from attending services, this program will allow your weekly offerings to continue without interruption.
It is very easy to sign up for this free service. You can either fill out an authorization form which you can pick up at the Church, or click on the “Donate” button below. If you sign up online, you will be able to open up your own personalized account where you can manage your online giving.
Sincerely,
Fr. Greg

Easter HopeDonate Now!
Dear Brothers amd Sisters,
Truly the COVID-19 challenge is global in nature. You and your parishioners may be interested to know that our Holy Father, Pope Francis has established an Emergency Solidarity Fund to come to the aid of people and communities who are being tragically impacted by the spread of this virus in mission territories. It aims to support religious Sisters and Brothers, Priests, and lay pastoral workers who reach out through hospitals and small clinics, parish and social ministries, providing vital health care, as well as basic needs, including food and shelter in areas of Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Although times are indeed difficult in our own parishes and communities, this is an opportunity to reach out to those even in more dire needs at this critical moment. Please consider donating by going to the following links. This is an opportunity for us faithful Catholics to bring a source of Easter hope to those most in need.
