Set up your online giving now! Online giving is safe and secure and it may help you get a few points for the post-COVID trip. It is actually efficient for us as we can import the transactions directly into our systems quickly, cutting down on handling cash and checks manually.
For those who have been giving online, we have made the shift in our online giving to Faith Direct. You should have received instructions on how to access your account with Faith Direct in the past couple of weeks. The customer support line, 1-866-507-8757 can help you if you have not been able to get set up. We will be canceling our accounts with the former service at the end of 2021 so please make the switch now.
Through Faith Direct you can make all of your contributions to Saint Bede via automatic payment from your checking account or credit card – just as you may do now with your mortgage, household bills, and other monthly payments. This is a great way to simplify your giving – and it’s the most cost-effective, environmentally-friendly way for us to receive your gifts.
Thank you for your support of Saint Bede Parish, Sign up below!
Easy, Safe, Secure, and Effective! We can help you get started....or give right now using our one-time feature- no account required.
Make a one-time gift or create an account to set up automatic giving; an effective way to give when you are out of town or unable to attend Mass. Online giving is the most cost-efficient way for you to support the ministries of Saint Bede Catholic Church. With giving online you provide resources to help us fulfill our mission proclaiming Christ's message in word and action. We can be a community of disciples going forth and creating new disciples in our families, parish, and throughout greater Williamsburg.
For more information on how you can make a difference or if you need help in setting this up, contact Director of Development, Harold D. "Sam" Samorian Jr., at 757-229-3631 ext. 2315 or via email.
