Thank you for participating in CRS Rice Bowl this Lent.

We hope that this program provided an enriching Lenten experience for your family! Please count the money in your CRS Rice Bowl and write a check for the amount made out to St. Catherine Church. Be sure to write “CRS Rice Bowl” on the memo line of the check.
Students should bring the check to the school and turn it into their teacher or you may turn your check-in directly to the Parish Office.

Checks should be received by Holy Thursday, April 1, 2021.

Please do not return your individual CRS Rice Bowl to school or the Parish Office. If you would like to donate online, please count the money in your CRS Rice Bowl and give the amount online by going to https://stca.org/giving 

Thank you for sharing your prayers and gifts with our sisters and brothers in need this Lent. Together, our school and Parish are making a difference in the lives of millions of people most in need.

Ways to Give

There are many ways to give

Offertory Envelopes

Parishioners can receive a supply of personalized envelopes by clicking here or contacting the Parish Office at the Rectory. These envelopes can be dropped in the collection basket at Mass on Saturday or Sunday; or mailed to St. Catherine Church, 17400 Peak Ave. Morgan Hill Ca. 95037; or may be dropped off at the Parish Office any time during the week.

Bill Pay & Online Giving

Most banks have an automated online bill payment service, often called Bill Pay, that will issue regular giving payments to Saint Catherine Catholic Church. Check your bank’s website or use your current bank bill payment service to make your tithes and offerings. This method of web giving is less expensive to the Parish than the online giving through St. Catherine Catholic Church website (www.stca.org). If you will be initiating the bill pay service, please indicate your envelope number in the account number for our reference. If you are sending capital campaign payments through the bill pay service, please indicate payment and envelope number. 

You can set up an online giving account on the parish website or by “clicking” here or on the button on the image at the top of the page. It is fast and easy!

NOTE: This last method is the most convenient for online giving – for you and the parish – and, we do wish to encourage you to take advantage of it. However, you should know that the church does incur a cost. Each transaction has a unit fee and a percentage charge that the church covers and is deducted from the amount of the gift you have given the parish.
