You can now truly be “Envelope Free”. Our PAD (Pre-Authorized Debit) system has been upgraded to allow us to accept donations for the various special collections (Holy Land, Retired Priests, etc.) throughout the year. That means that PAD users will no longer have any need for a box of envelopes. If you choose to use PAD for special collections, your monthly donation will be spread evenly between all of the special collections throughout the year.

New PAD forms will attached to this weekend’s bulletin, or are available here. If you haven’t signed up for PAD because of still having to keep track of envelopes, now is the time to switch. Current PAD users who wish to add special collections to their PAD donation should fill out one of the new forms, indicating your choice. If you have any questions on how PAD works, please call (653-6852) or email (office@saintjoachims.com) the office.
