Ways to Give
If you haven’t already, I prayerfully request that you consider joining the many families who use Faith Direct to fulfill their very generous stewardship commitments to our parish and the wider church.
Faith Direct provides our families with the ability to give to our parish via electronic donation and I remain most pleased with the service they have provided St. Bartholomew. I hope you will set aside five or ten minutes today to fill out the enclosed campaign form and send it to Faith Direct right away – or, you can visit www.faithdirect.net and enroll online using our parish code: TX896.
With online enrollment, you will be able to access your account any time to view and make changes to your account information and gifts. For those already enrolled, I want to thank you for your participation in the Faith Direct electronic giving program! eGiving has proven to be the most cost effective way for St. Bartholomew to receive your generous donations.
Thank You,
Father Christopher Plant
