As a tithing parish, Saint Mary’s provides financial support for the Religious Education Program from the generous giving of families like you. Due to family tithing, there is therefore no upfront cost for any child in our Religious Education Program. We ask all families to give as generously as possible to the weekend collection as a part of your family’s 10% tithe from gross income.
We always seek to be the best possible stewards of money that is tithed to the parish and will be taking advantage of early book order discounts. Please register by April 30th to help us make that possible. After April 30th, we will be charging a $25 book fee for each child that is enrolled in order to compensate for increased book charges after that date. We encourage you to register your children by April 30th to avoid this charge. If you have any questions or need assistance with enrollment, please contact Alan Schwartz (alan@stmaryslancaster.org or 392-2578 ext 5, Office Hours Thursdays).
