Envelopes
Sunday giving envelopes have been a staple in Catholic churches for decades. When you register with our parish, you are automatically put on the envelope mailing list - unless you choose to use a different giving option. If you choose the envelope option for your donations, you may then use it for your Sunday tithe of cash or check. The envelopes can then either be put in the collection basket at Mass or mailed directly to the Rectory.
Fr. Del is calling all St. Mary's parishioners to switch over to online giving for their donations to the church. Online payments are a great way to support our parish as they provide the church with a steady cash flow throughout the year and they lighten the work load of our staff, which allows them to focus their efforts on other projects. Read below on the different ways you can donate online!
Automatic Bank Withdrawal
This method allows funds to be directly taken out of a savings or checking account automatically on your choice of either the 8th, the 15th, or the 23rd of each month. If you are interested in signing up for automatic bank withdrawal, please print out the form below. You will then be able to fill it out and return it to the Rectory through the mail, the collection basket at Mass, or dropping it off directly. Please contact Melissa Swiecicki with any questions at 402-291-1350 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Matching Gifts
Many Omaha employers will match your donation for St. Mary's School or Church. This method can double the impact of your donation and help our parish twice as much. Check with your employer today to see if this may be an option for you.

Legacy and Planned Gifts
A planned gift is a gift given to the church through a will, contract, or trust. It leaves a lasting legacy and helps ensure the fulfillment of the church’s mission for years to come. You may also donate from your Donor Advised Funds and your tax-free IRA accounts. If you donate via an IRA account, a thank you letter will be sent out stating that no goods or services were exchanged for it and that the donation amount can be deducted from your taxes. If you are interested in discussing your estate gift options further, please contact Melissa Swiecicki, Stewardship & Development Coordinator, at 402-291-1350 ext. 106 or This email address is being protected from spambots.

Memorials
Upon a parishioner’s death, they or their families may wish to have donations received from the funeral go to the parish. These donations go into a memorial fund in honor of these generous parishioners who are no longer with us. There is also the opportunity to have the deceased’s name etched into the memorial wall in the parish’s Our Lady of Sorrows Memorial Prayer Garden.
