Faith Direct
Faith Direct can make all of your contributions to Saint Barnabas Church 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.
Faith Direct - Benefits to You
For you and your family, Faith Direct offers many benefits including –
- You can choose the amount and timing of your contributions and designate your preferred source for them.
- There is no cost to you to enroll and you can adjust or stop your donations at any time.
- Once you designate your preferences, your contributions will be made automatically for you. You can manage your donations easily online or by telephone.
- Electronic giving is an ideal way for you to send your regular contributions – even when vacation or business takes you out of town, or an illness prevents you from attending Mass.

Benefits for Our Church
Choosing to give electronically helps Saint Barnabas Church in many ways:
- It will save our parish considerable time and expense.
- It helps bring consistency to our parish by giving us a better idea of the funds we will have coming in week after week so we can make our ministries and programs as far-reaching and effective as possible.
- It reduces the unavoidable built-in waste of using traditional envelopes.
*Many parishes in our Diocese and others nationwide have already experienced the benefits of this program.
What Will I Do When Ushers Pass the Offertory Basket?
Because the tradition of the offertory collection is so important to all of us and to our liturgy, if you would like, Faith Direct will provide you with personalized “offertory cards” that you can choose to place in the collection basket as a visible sign of your support.
