Ways to Give

As Christian stewards, we receive God's gifts gratefully, cultivate them responsibly, share them lovingly in justice with others, and return them with increase to the Lord.” – From the U.S. Bishops’ Pastoral Letter on Stewardship

We recognize that how a person chooses to give of their treasure may not be through the traditional collection basket each week.  We are happy to offer a variety of giving options so you may select what works best for your needs:

Online Giving

Online Giving is administered through Faith Direct and is a convenient, safe and secure method of giving.  Visit the Faith Direct Information on this page for more information about how this program works or to start giving online.

Bank Bill Pay

If you prefer to schedule your contribution through your bank bill pay program, please be sure to put your envelope number as the account number and include any instructions in the Memo section.   Checks should be addressed to St Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church, 2701 Piedra Dr., Plano, TX  75023.

Many employers recognize the generosity of their employees’ time, talent and treasure outside of the workplace.  Some offer matching gifts when you contribute to the Church through payroll withdrawal, while others have programs where employees can nominate their charity for grants or earn money through service hours. Check with your human resources office to see if your employer has a program.  Current employers participating include:
