ELECTRONIC GIVING Would you find it helpful to have your offerings debited directly from your bank account as you probably do with other obligations? St. John’s offers electronic giving for those of you who wish to have contributions transferred electronically to the church’s account. If you have plans to travel this spring, electronic giving gives you a convenient way to keep up with your intended offerings. To set up a recurring or one-time giving schedule, visit us online at stjohnsstonyridge.net (or scan this square with your phone) and locate the Give Generously button. If it’s easier, complete a paper authorization form and return it to Shirley Johnson, Financial Secretary.
