St.
Brigid Tapestry Program
Welcome to St. Brigid of Kildare Parish’s Tapestry Program
information page. We wanted to take this opportunity to introduce you
to a program that has redefined parish life and participation at St. Brigid
of Kildare. We hope you will take a few minutes, read this
information and become an active member of our Catholic community. This campaign
has three very specific goals:
1.
Increasing participation at the Sunday Eucharist.
2.
Reaching out to those registered parishioners who have not, in the past,
participated in any facet of parish life
3.
Increasing our
offertory contributions so that we will be able to meet our operating and
growth expenses.
The Tapestry program was designed by your
fellow parishioners to ensure the continuing stewardship of our rapidly
growing parish by all its registered families. We have a great need
for people’s time, talent and treasure; we are
appealing to you for help.
Our need for talented
people to assist in our growing ministry programs and for increased
offertory participation is great. Our immediate challenge is to
satisfy the needs of our ever-growing parish. As we continue to grow
and age our physical structures require continuous maintenance. Our
ministries continue to expand to meet the needs of our parishioners.
To help keep up with these demands, we are asking you to consider a
commitment to our parish.
We have developed a
variety of flexible giving options that go beyond the traditional Sunday
envelope collection system. Our most popular and fastest growing
method is Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) this gives you the ability to
electronically make your contributions via credit card or directly from your
checking account. This is not only convenient for you but saves the
Parish valuable time and money. We also offer a (Bill Me) method that
provides detailed monthly and quarterly billing statements and the envelopes
are still available as well. Please avail yourself of whichever method
fits your lifestyle, including a one-time gift.
Pledges of dollars are only one of our goals. To have
the growing parish we do is wonderful and the growing sense of Catholic
community is a blessing! The Gospel speaks continually of the need to
share ourselves and we have many ministries that can use your unique
talents!
We encourage you to complete the Annual Offertory
Contribution card and separate Volunteer card. These will provide a
means to begin sharing your time, talents and treasure, by selecting how you
would like to become involved.
If you have additional questions regarding the Tapestry
Program, please contact Sarah Moore in the parish office at 761-3734.
