Giving with Ease

A safe and simple way to Tithe is here! Did you know you can set St. Francis Borgia up as a payee in your bill pay section of your bank account? You are able to have your bank send a weekly, monthly, or quarterly contribution to the parish using the banking system you already use to pay your bills. 


To do this, you would enter St. Francis Borgia Catholic Church, our mailing address, which is 115 Cedar Street, Wahsington Mo 63090 and your account number which is your envelope number. If you do not have this number or need any help setting this up, please contact the parish office, business manager. 636-239-6701 x 1511. 


This method avoids charges the church pays for each transaction to OSV (Our Sunday Visitor) the company that processes our offertory.

Turn your IRA Distributions into Tax Free Charitable Donations

Did You Know?


Individuals who are age 70 ½ and older can donate up to $100,000 per year tax free from their IRA to the church or other charity. IRA distributions are generally taxable income, but with a QCD (Qualified Charitable Distribution) it is not included in your income so you avoid the potential negative tax consequences that regular IRA withdrawals can create. 

Charitable contribution deductions are usually limited or eliminated altogether for taxpayers who do not itemize deductions, but making the donation via a QCD ensures that you receive the full tax benefit of the donation even if you do not itemize. QCDs can satisfy all or part the amount of your required minimum distribution from your IRA for those age 72 or older. The QCD must be made payable directly to the charitable entity. 

Be sure to work closely with your financial and tax advisors to determine whether this provision is right for you. 

This information is not meant as tax or legal advice. Tax laws are complex and subject to change, please consult a professional advisor to determine how this tax law affects your situation.
