Giving Back to the Lord

Please register to join the parish community.  Printable Form  or Online Form.

When you register in the parish you become part of a supporting community.  Your registration will trigger Giving Envelopes to be printer and sent to you.  Using envelopes is just one way to contribute to the parish. 

Online Giving makes it easy to keep on track of your giving and be consistent when you are out of town for the weekend . 

The Scrip Program can direct money to a specific ministry or a child's tuition of your choice. 

Your Time and Talent is another important way to give back to the Lord.

A portion of the  Diocese Annual Appeal always comes back to the parish.

 

We are all stewards of God's gifts to us. Choosing this online giving option for giving you can better match your gift to God with your own budget and eliminate the bother of searching for cash or checks when contributing. You can also contribute to special collections as they arise.

Description:  When families purchase Scrip from St. Gregory’s, they’re purchasing gift certificates and pre-paid cards that can be used just like cash. Scrip can be used to purchase everyday household items like food, clothing, gasoline and entertainment, and earn revenue for various St. Gregory’s School and Church entities at the same time. The Scrip discount is split between the fund of your choice and the fund designated by the Scrip Committee.

Scrip is sold at face value; participants pay the exact value of what the card is worth.  St. Gregory’s is able to generate revenue by purchasing these gift cards/certificates in bulk at a discount price.  The Scrip rebate is divided with the fund(s) of the participant’s choice receiving 75% and the fund designated by the Scrip Committee retaining 25%.  Available choices for designation include preschool and K-8 tuition, tuition assistance, banking funds for future students, church ministries, religious education, and school endowments. 
As of September, 2020, St Gregory Scrip has made over $350, 000 in profit (75% of that going to our school families to offset the cost of tuition).
 

Ordering:  Scrip from a wide range of retailers can be ordered. Select Scrip gift cards/certificates are available for purchase after weekend Masses about once a month (Cash & Carry) and online.  The Scrip Committee submits an order almost every Monday during the school year and every other Monday during the summer.  Orders and payments must be turned into the school or church offices by NOON on Mondays, and can also be submitted through the collection baskets at all Masses or online at https://www.shopwithscrip.com/.  Orders are available for pick-up on Fridays of the same week or at Cash and Carry Masses.  See the bulletin and school announcements for any changes or exact ordering deadlines.  Order forms are available in the Gathering Space and in the Parish Office and online.

Please contact Susan Long at 660-541-4320 for an enrollment code (which is needed to set up your Scrip account).

Another way to give back to the Lord and your parish is to get involved in one or more of the ministries.  There are so many ways to give back by sharing your time and talent.  Take a look at our Ministry pages and request more information about what appeals to you.  When you sign up to help with a ministry you become an active member of our community and lighten the load for others giving back to the community. God wants us to be a community.  Helping in the ministries of the parish helps to make our community stronger.
