Bishop's Emergency Aid Fund
|
Due to the hardships created by the Covid-19 pandemic, Bishop Morales has established a special Emergency Aid Fund to help churches and clergy in the diocese who have been particularly hard hit by our current economic situation. Please consider what you can give to help your brothers and sisters in need.
Any amount would be appreciated. |

Thoughtful GivingThe Diocese of Quincy has prepared this booklet to provide general information about the various ways you can accomplish your charitable goals during your lifetime and also in the future through estate planning. We hope that it will encourage you to live generously and provide for the work of God’s Kingdom through your home parish and the Diocese of Quincy.
Generosity is central to our Christian faith. “We love because He first loved us” (John 4:19) and we give because He gave His only Son for our salvation. Few decisions are more important than deciding how to use the resources God has given us today (stewardship) and how those resources will be distributed in the future (estate planning). To view or download a copy of our Thoughtful Giving brochure, click here: Thoughtful Giving Brochure If you would like a printed copy(s) mailed to you, just contact Gayle Heatherington at gayleheatherington@gmail.com. Employer Matching Gift programsMany employers have matching gift programs where they will make a matching contribution to a charity of your choice. Some also reward employee volunteer hours with a cash donation. You may use the tool below to search for the company you work for to see if they have a matching program.
