Faithful Catholics are expected to give to the Lord with a grateful heart. The amount is meant to be a sacrifice -- not what is convenient or easy.

For example, for those who are working, a minimum amount is one hour’s household pay per week.

Your faithful support of our parish is very much appreciated.  Please prayerfully remember our church and help strengthen our presence so that we may faithfully serve our community.
May God’s blessings be with you!

Fr. Paul 

BENEFITS OF AN IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVER
If you are 70 ½ or older, you can make a tax-free gift directly from your IRA account to SMT. This law allows you to transfer any amount up to $100,000 annually directly to a qualified charitable organization without paying income tax on the distribution. The transfer does not generate taxable income or a tax deduction, so you benefit even if you do not itemize your tax deductions. Your gift can satisfy all or part of your required minimum distribution and is not subject to the deduction limits on charitable gifts. 

The form below can be used to begin the transfer.
