Program Structure

This year, the Forward in Faith program is broken into two weekends:


Week 1: Reflection Weekend

Encourage your parishioners to:

Reflect on their current Offertory contributions, think about the parish ministries that hold a special meaning to them and pray for guidance.

 

Week 2: Commitment Weekend

This is the time for parishioners to make their commitment. Walk them through the commitment card as an act of faith, solidifying their dedication to supporting the church and its mission.


Starting your Offertory Program in the fall ensures ample time for preparation and engagement, maximizing the impact on your parish. Let's move forward in faith together, embracing the joy of giving and strengthening our church community.
