Attention Alabama Taxpayers
As you review your Alabama taxes this season, please consider planning for your 2016 Scholarships for Kids contribution to help St. Ann School. Ask your tax advisor about the possibility of lowering your state income tax payroll withholding and re-directing that amount to a savings account for a contribution to a Scholarship Granting Organization. The Alabama Accountability Act allows dollar-for-dollar state income tax credits for donations to approved SGOs (which also qualify as 501(c)3 organizations).
Please go to www.alabamakids.net to learn how to take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity for Alabama taxpayers and St. Ann School.
St. Ann Catholic School is accepting applications for the 2016-17 school year. Applications may be picked up at the school, Information Desk, or downloaded at www.saintanndecatur.org. If you would like more information about the school, please call and make an appointment to visit. Mr. Weimer will be glad to discuss all options.
Stewardship
Jesus gives us the gift of peace in an intimate, personal relationship. This gift offers another gift – confidence as we share the good news by the example of our lives.
Are you starting to plan your summer vacations? Consider enrolling in eGiving through Faith Direct so that your gift can reach us even when you cannot. Visit www.faithdirect.net and use our church code: AL724. Your gifts through Faith Direct will help stabilize our parish finances through the busy (but beautiful) summer months. Thank you for your continued support of our parish family with your time and talents as well as treasure!
