Patty Rose
Director of Stewardship and Development

Holy Family Parish believes stewardship is a way of life. As a parish, we need to strive to be better disciples of Christ; supporting and nurturing one another. As caretakers of God’s spiritual and worldly blessings, we show our gratitude by sharing our time, talent and treasure with our family, our community and our parish. We strive toward the biblical tithe of 10 percent, giving our time, talent and treasure back to God: six percent to our parish, one percent to our diocese and three percent to other worthy causes. Each one of us is called to discern what we can give back of ourselves, remembering everything we have and everything we are is a gift from God.

When you donate cash to Holy Family, you may donate to our annual appeal, debt reduction or to second collections. By donating to the annual appeal, you can make an impact on Holy Family to help with operating expenses. If you donate to the debt reduction fund, you are securing the parish’s future. Regardless of what fund you donate to, you will receive a charitable income tax deduction.

Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds

You may give appreciated stocks, mutual funds and bonds to Holy Family. By donating directly to your parish, you will gain the following benefits: no capital gains tax on the sale and a charitable income tax deduction. Because these gifts require coordination with the donor’s broker, this process should start no later than December 11 to ensure the gift is completed by the year’s end. These can be used to complete pledges to annual appeals or to donate to our capital improvement fund.
