We wish to extend a sincere THANK YOU to everyone who financially supports our parish through weekly giving, special collections, one-time gifts, and all other the other avenues of giving (e.g. volunteering your time and talent). 

Everyone's income and needs are different, and each gift is understood to be a sacrifice given for the greater good. May God bless your efforts.

Donations to St. John the Beloved parish support all of our ministries and operations including education and enrichment for all ages, outreach to homebound parishioners, our active youth group, and St John the Beloved School. Your gifts make a meaningful difference. 

Is ParishSOFT Giving Safe?

Online Giving meets the highest banking-level security standards set forth by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) to ensure safe and confidential transactions. In fact, your banking information is encrypted in the system and is not accessible to any users or administrators of the ConnectNow Giving system. When you manage your own account information, your church never needs to handle checks or worry about locking up documents containing your account information. And you’ll always be certain that your gifts are direct-deposited into your church’s account.
