Do you like the idea of no longer fumbling with church envelopes? Now you can donate regularly online through WeShare.
At WeShare, we provide parishioners a simple, secure and convenient way to support their churches by enabling them to transfer their monthly gifts, special gifts, and one-time donations directly from their checking, savings, or credit card accounts. Members can access their account anytime online via a secure login and password. Members can choose to have their monthly gift debited from their account on either the 5th or the 20th of each month, or they can choose to split their monthly gift between the two dates. They may also choose to give any amount to various second or special collections, including church and diocesan funds, as well as one-time donations. Once their amounts are entered, these gifts are automatically deducted every month or on specific months until the user chooses to change or discontinue. Parishioners can opt to change the amounts of their gifts, switch between debit dates, or even skip a month at any time. Every January, parishioners receive an annual report of their total giving for the year that they can use for their tax returns. In addition, we provide easy-to-print offertory cards that can be placed in the collection basket during Mass to represent parishioners’ gifts.
This service is provided completely at no cost to the parishioner. All personal and account information is kept strictly confidential at all times and is not shared or sold to anyone.
