We are pleased to announce that Sts. Peter & Paul provides online giving through software called ConnectNow Giving. It is part of our parish database, ConnectNow by ParishSOFT.
ConnectNow Giving offers you the opportunity to make secure, automatic contributions from your bank account to our church. This is a convenient and safe way to make a one-time or recurring donation. If you give through this online program, you can watch your giving grow throughout the year. When you create your login, your gift and pledge history will be stored so that you can access it anytime. This will allow you to accurately assess how much you’re giving to what so you can make informed decisions and plan your future gifts. It also helps us in the church office; there’s much less processing for online gifts than envelope gifts!
We thank all our parish families for their gifts to support God’s work here at Sts. Peter & Paul.
1. Click on the blue ConnectNow Giving button below.
2. Click on SIGN IN to register for an account.
3. Set up your account by entering your information, email & password.
PLEASE NOTE: When registering for an account, you MUST use an email address that is already in our database. If you do not know if you have an email address in our database, please contact the office for assistance. If you make an online donation without a registered email, you will create another parishioner account, and it will not keep an updated accounting of your gift and pledge history.
4. The last step is to set up your donations - scheduling recurring or one-time gifts, then entering your banking information, etc. At this time, we are only set up to receive checking account debits - no credit cards.
FAQs
Online Giving meets the highest banking-level security standards set forth by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) to ensure safe and confidential transactions. In fact, your banking information is encrypted in the system and is not accessible to any users or administrators of the ConnectNow Giving system. When you manage your own account information, your church never needs to handle checks or worry about locking up documents containing your account information. And you’ll always be certain that your gifts are direct-deposited into your church’s account.
You won’t have to remember to write a check or stop by the ATM on Sundays! If you manage your bills online, why not give to your church online? It’s safe and secure, and you decide exactly when your gift is made and where it goes. So, if you forgot your envelope last week, or if you missed our second collection, you can go online and make a gift to the special collection fund or our regular offertory.
