We are trying to have just one collection so please put in your usual "second collection" envelopes or donations the first and only time the ushers pass by with the donation basket which is at the Offertory. Please be prepared with both envelopes or donations at that time. We are encouraging on-line giving as a safer and better way to donate to your parish church. So even if you are not able to be at Mass in person for whatever reason, traveling or health etc, you can still fulfill your tithing obligations to support your parish for maintenance and improvements and better service. The Archdiocese, U.S. Bishops and even the Vatican and Holy Land are some of the required collections each parish must offer over the course of the year. First and foremost should be the donations for your local parish church, St. Anthony, to continue to be present, open and of service. The customary monthly second collection for the maintenance fund has been ended as a "second collection" but NOT as a monthly collection during the one collection at the Offertory! Is this confusing...lets hope we get used to it!
