online giving

At Our Lady of Grace Church we offer a web based offertory solution. We provide this service, so that you have the option to manage your contributions online. This service is safe and secure, requires no special software, and is convenient for you and our parish staff. The parish will provide data for your records and for tax purposes but will not have use of the information for any other purpose.


If you would like to make a one-time gift, set up a weekly, monthly, or even annual donation please click the ONLINE GIVING button below.


When we give, it acknowledges God as the giver of everything we have, reflects our trust that He will continue to provide for us, and allows us to be a part of His work here on earth. It’s something we do with joy. With God’s favor and your faithful support, Our Lady of Grace Church will continue to have an incredible impact in our community, our parish, and for our children.

2024 CATHOLIC FAITH APPEAL

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,


May the blessings of Christ be with you and your family as we begin this New Year filled with the grace of Our Lord. Please accept my sincere appreciation for your continued support of the Catholic Faith Appeal (CFA).


Due to the generosity of kind people like you, the Diocese of Venice has been able to continue the good works of the Church. Baptisms, First Communions, Confirmations, Marriages and Ordinations have been celebrated with great joy among the Faithful. As people of hope, we mourn the death of loved ones. In the material realm, we continue to feed the hungry, visit the sick and the elderly, shelter the homeless, and shepherd our children in the Faith.


There is much to celebrate our lives. However, scripture reminds us, "Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest" (Gal 6:9). Therefore I come to you with an invitation to support this year's Catholic Faith Appeal.


Many of the Diocesan programs and ministries funded through the CFA are highlighted in this brochure. As can be seen, the CFA furthers the mission given by Christ and impacts many individuals, families, and communities. I invite you to be part of this undertaking and implore you not to "grow tired of doing good".


May the Lord abundantly reward your desire to hep those in need. Be assured of of my prayers for you and you family.
 

Sincerely yours in Christ,


+ Frank J. Dewane

Bishop of the Diocese of

Venice in Florida
