Now that You've Made Your Pledge, How Do You Fulfill It?

December 10, 2025

Thank you for making your pledge to St. James Cathedral’s 2026 Season of Faith!

Your commitment helps sustain our ministries, our outreach, and the spiritual life we share together.

So now that you’ve pledged… what’s the best way to fulfill it? The good news is: you have options. Choose what fits your financial rhythm and your household budget.

Weekly or Monthly Giving

Many parishioners prefer to give a set amount weekly or monthly. This keeps your pledge manageable and predictable—and it adds up beautifully over the year.

Sunday Envelopes

If you enjoy the ritual of placing your gift in the plate each week, you can continue to do so. Simply use your giving envelope and drop it in at any service.

Automatic Withdrawals (the easiest option!)

For a hands-free, consistent way to fulfill your pledge, consider setting up an automatic withdrawal through Realm. This ensures your pledge is met evenly throughout the year—and it’s one less thing to remember on Sunday morning.

If you need help getting set up in Realm or adjusting your giving schedule, the Cathedral staff is happy to assist.

Your pledge—and your follow-through—truly sustains the life of our Cathedral. Thank you for your generosity and for being part of this community of faith.
