We are grateful for your generous contributions to sustain our Parish and support good works.  There are many ways to help support St Thomas the Apostle Church with your time, talent and treasure. 

Setting up your weekly offertory online saves paper, ink and postage, provides additional documentation to track your tax-deductible contributions and helps St Thomas to budget more effectively.  Plus it is so convenient!

If you would like to donate to the Parish electronically, many parishioners set up "autopay" transactions through their own financial institutions.  When doing so, please make sure to designate the recipient as St Thomas the Apostle Church, 35 Adams Place, Delmar, New York. 12054

If you would like to donate electronically through a service other than your financial institution, St Thomas also participates in the Vanco Electronic Giving Program.  Please visit Vanco to sign up.

Some parishioners who choose electronic giving like to represent that offering when the collection basket circulates through Church.  Feel free to use these collection cards or your own version and drop in the basket when it comes around.  Thank you for your generoisty.

Online:  As noted above, making your offering online as a weekly ot monthly recurring donation is preferred.  Another option for online donation is your credit card's or financial institution's one-time method.  This type of donation may be particuarlly convenient for specific collections like the annual Bishop's Appeal.

Weekly Envelopes:  Pre-printed donation envelopes are mailed to registered parishioners who then insert their offertory into the envelope and place the envelope in the collection basket during Mass.  If you miss a week, we are grateful if you are able to catch up the next time you are at Mass, since the workings of our Parish rely on your conistent support.
