Offertory
The Offertory, or Collection, at Mass, is an integral part of the Sunday liturgy, not just because it is the primary means by which the parish receives financial support from the parishioners, but because it is also an expression of our gratitude to God for the blessings He has given us to return a portion of them back to Him for use by His Church.

Second Collections
As Catholics, not only do we support our parish family, but also our greater community around us. The Diocese of Austin's second collection allows us to give resources to both our region and the world.

Envelopes
Online giving is the preferred method of giving. However, if you are unable to establish online giving you may request to receive envelopes. The envelopes are mailed bi-monthly to the address in our membership directory. You can put the envelope in the donation basket during Mass or take it to the office during office hours. Please indicate your desired fund on the memo line of your check (ex: Offertory)

It saves time and treasure!
Church contributions made through WeShare electronic giving require the following processing:
- WeShare donations are directly deposited in the church bank account without any volunteer or staff effort.
- A staff member performs a monthly export/import of donations from WeShare into our parish database (about a 10-minute process) which automatically produces the individual parishioner giving records.
Approximate total time monthly: 10 minutes

Cash or Check Donations
Church contributions made by check or cash require the following processing:
- Volunteer money counters separate the contributions by collection type.
- Cash and checks are separated, counted, and tallied for each collection.
- Deposit tickets are prepared for all cash contributions for each of the collections.
- Checks are tallied, totaled, and bundled by collection.
- Cash deposits are delivered to the bank.
