Your Sunday Offering
How much should I give back to God? Only you can decide. Tithing is not about Church support, it is a spiritual concept that places God first in your life.
Collection Reminders
It is extremely helpful for accounting purposes to have separate donations for different funds since they are deposited separately (i.e. Sunday collection, 2nd Collections, St. Joseph Cares).
Because funds designated for special diocesan collections are sent to the diocese just a few weeks after the collection date, we ask that you submit your donations in a timely manner.
Simplify your life by signing up for our ParishSOFT Online Giving option (giving.parishsoft.com/app/giving/stjosephmantua).
We continue to build our fund for St. Joseph’s Paving Project. Simply designate Building & Grounds Maintenance using the green Special Contribution Envelope in your packet or through Online Giving. As always, thank you for your support.
Contribution envelope packets are sent out by our envelope company, National Church Supply (NCS), every two months. These packets include Sunday collection envelopes and a majority of the special diocesan collections. Our envelope file is submitted at least one month prior so if you should have any changes, please let the Parish Office know as soon as possible. Online Giving is a convenient option that gives consistently to your parish and saves the expense of mailing out envelopes.
St. Joseph Church provides online giving through software called ParishSOFT Giving. This is a convenient and safe way to make a one-time or recurring donation. ParishSOFT Giving is connected with our parish database. It is a real convenience for the parish (less expensive, contributions are automatically entered into the database, and reduced contribution envelope expenses).

There is a green Special Contribution Envelope included in each month's set of envelopes. With this envelope you may contribute to The Catholic Exponent, Building & Grounds Maintenance Fund, Carillon, and St. Joseph Cares.
The Catholic Exponent is the official newspaper of the Diocese of Youngstown and an award-winning member of the Catholic Press Association. They provide “a Catholic Window on the World,” offering news, features and commentary at the diocesan, national and international levels. They also publish special sections on topics of interest to readers and advertisers. The Catholic Exponent was first published on January 7, 1944, about six months after the founding of the Diocese of Youngstown. Click here for the DOY Newspaper link to view their website. To receive this twice monthly publication, please contact the Parish Office (330-274-2253). Your contribution toward this newspaper may be made using the green Special Contribution Envelope in your contribution envelope packet and is most appreciated.
Your donations to this fund help with the ongoing maintenance and upkeep of our beautiful facilities. In addition, we have a Parish Renovation Fund that builds interest to allow larger improvement projects to take place.

Maintenance & Grounds Ministry
Carillon Memorials are always welcome to memorialize or honor those special people in your life or mark events such as anniversaries, birthdays or graduations. A $20.00 donation will reserve your date for which the Angelus and seasonal hymns will ring both at noon and at 6 p.m. Your Carillon Memorials will be listed in the bulletin the weekend prior to your reserved date.
This outreach ministry of our parish is guided by the Corporal Works of Mercy (Matthew 25) to Feed the Hungry, Give Drink to the Thirsty, Shelter the Homeless, Clothe the Naked, Comfort the Sick, and Visit the Imprisoned. Your donations help those in need throughout our community and northern Portage County.
