Annual Financial Reports
Tithing
If you currently use automatic withdrawal for your tithing, thank you! Might you be able to increase your monthly amount?
If you don’t use automatic withdrawal from your bank for tithing, please consider it. This method is a simple and practical way to consistently tithe. You designate a specific amount of money to be automatically withdrawn from your bank account on a monthly basis on a pre-determined date. Questions? Contact Candy Zidon, parish bookkeeper by email .

A New Way to Tithe!
Our parish has been looking into offering online giving and we are currently able to offer this opportunity through the Catholic Foundation of Southwest Iowa. Use the QR Code below or use this secure link: https://catholicfoundationiowa.org/make-a-donation/parishes-and-schools-relief/. Using the drop down menu, you can choose our parish (St. Mary/Holy Cross Parish - Elkhart) to make your Tithe, Building Fund and/or Food Pantry donation. The Foundation sends gift receipts.
Donations for 2024
If you wish to have any donation included on your 2024 contribution statement, it must reach the Parish Office by Tuesday, Dec. 31, via the collection basket at Mass or by mail. Monies received after this date, even if dated 2024, will be credited as 2025 donations. Your support is much appreciated; thank you!! The Office is closed Dec. 24-Jan. 1.
