Donations

St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church

Donations

Our parish provides several methods for parishioners to make their offertory contributions. We also provide a list of options that parishioners can include in their estate planning.

ENVELOPES

Registered parishioners receive a monthly packet of contribution envelopes, which includes envelopes for Sundays, holy days, special collections, the maintenance fund, and the capital campaign. These envelopes are placed in the collection baskets during the Offertory at Mass. Please call the Parish Office (483-8454) if you are not currently receiving the packet but wish to.

ON-LINE CHECKING

Most parishioners can also arrange through their bank to have electronically created checks mailed from their account to the church. It is important that the check show the parishioner’s envelope account number and the purpose for the check, such as Sunday, Campaign, Holy Day, etc. Example: 9876 Campaign or 9876 Sunday.

Checks should be made payable to:

St. John the Evangelist Church

5751 Locust Ave

Carmichael, CA 95608-1320

ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER (EFT)

Parishioners can also create an account with ParishPay through which money is deducted from the person’s bank account (checking or savings) or credit card and deposited directly into the church’s bank account.Accounts can be created and donations specified by going to the ParishPay site:

Parishioners may also contact the parish bookkeeper who can create the ParishPay account for them.

PLANNED GIVING

Through various planned giving options, parishioners are able to designate proceeds from their estate to be transferred to their church and other charities. The Catholic Foundation of the Diocese of Sacramento has prepared a list of planned giving options which you can review and discuss with your financial planning advisor.
