The work of the Church in the Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto is made possible through the generosity of its parishioners.  In response to changing lifestyles and increased demands on time and energy, the Archdiocese of Toronto seeks, through Pre-Authorized Giving (PAG), to assist you in your giving.   PAG may be a good choice for you ...

What is the Pre-Authorized Giving Plan?

The Archdiocese of Toronto has established a Pre-Authorized Giving Plan to assist you in your support of the work of our parish church through your regular parish offerings.  PAG is a very simple procedure.  When you participate in pre-authorized giving, your offering will be withdrawn from your bank account on or about the 20th of each month.  This amount will then be deposited into the parish's account.  This amount will be receipted at the end of the year for tax purposes.

 

Who looks after the plan?

The Office of Stewardship Development of the Archdiocese of Toronto administers the Pre-Authorized Giving Plan for the parishes.
