“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:7
-
Each year we have the opportunity to re-evaluate and reflect on our giving in light of our commitment to our faith. The challenge for all of us is to pray seriously about increasing our regular financial gifts to the parish collection. So many good people in the pews make beautiful sacrifices year-round. This is inspiring and humbling. However, we see a trend that many regularly contributing parishioners give the same amount year after year, simply because they do not reflect on their regular weekly tithe and special contributions. The chart below provides guidance to help you discern the level of your gift. Please spend some time in prayer and see how God is calling you to place your gifts before Him with a joyful heart.

Ways to support your SJA parish
SJA offers a variety of ways to offer your tithe. You can choose the one that works best for you.
ENVELOPES
If you still prefer to give in the collection basket we can set up envelopes to be mailed to your home or you can use any envelope you have available. Simply mark the outside of the envelope with the following:
- Sunday date of donation
- your first and last name
- donation intent (Christmas, Year-End Giving, etc.)
- parishioner number (if you know it)
Then drop the envelope in the collection basket during the weekend Mass or mail it to
SJA, 2700 17th Ave E, Shakopee, MN 55379.
online
Choosing to give electronically offers you, the donor, flexible ways to support your parish from anywhere. Setting up a recurring contribution helps SJA to create a better forecast for budgeting purposes.It’s Secure
An electronic gift cannot be lost or stolen.
It’s Timely
This begins with establishing your gift to God as a priority in your budget. Then, set up a recurring contribution that is scheduled to come out of your account on the day you specify. Give on Sundays and Holy Days, and to our Hands of Christ, Special Funds, and Endowments.
It’s Simple
Instead of remembering to write your contribution check and bring it to church, you will be assured that your gift will be processed even when you are out of town. You can call the office at any time to make changes.
It's beneficial for the church and the people we serve
Electronic giving saves the Church time and money by reducing the number of envelopes that are mailed out and reducing the envelopes that need to be counted by our weekly volunteer team.
“Beloved children, our love can't be an abstract theory we only talk about, but a way of life demonstrated through our loving deeds.” 1 John 3:18
