A note on WeShare:
Did you know that OLOG WeShare online giving is as easy as online internet shopping or online banking and bill paying? No fussing with envelopes or checks, and you don’t have to worry about forgetting your envelope on Sunday! Each week you can decide what you would like to give, or you can set up your contributions to the parish on a recurring weekly or monthly basis. You can even pay your Day Care, Angel Care or Faith Formation tuition through WeShare without any hassles!
When you contribute to the parish using WeShare instead of using envelopes and checks, you receive a confirmation and receipt, and you can set up your own account so that you can print out a listing of all your contributions (a lot easier than tracking your donations from a check book, especially at tax time)! If you’d like, you can also print out a neat contribution slip to put in the basket instead of putting in your offering envelope. Or, you can tell the usher – Thanks, but I use WeShare!
We’ve been trying to use our resources wisely at OLOG. If more parishioners use WeShare, here’s how we can benefit:
- Saving money on printing and producing envelopes;
- You don’t have to remember to pick up your envelope box and we don’t have the envelope boxes in the lobby (forever!);
- Reduced secretarial time, resources, and costs to enter your contributions;
- The information is imported directly into our parish accounts and data programs;
- Your contribution or tuition is deposited directly to our parish account, which cuts down on our having to count contributions and make physical bank deposits;
- It is totally private – we don’t keep your credit card information WeShare does that for us using the same security features you are accustomed to with online shopping and banking;
- We preserve trees and protect our environment!
It’s so easy and convenient! When you contribute and share with our OLOG parish, use WeShare!
