Development Committee Goals and Objectives
The Development Committee has laid the groundwork for a number of initiatives over the past year. Some are now ready to move to implementation. Others need further refinement. The initiatives are:
Electronic Giving
Objective: To allow a means through which parishioners can allocate their scheduled contributions to the parish without having to remember envelopes. Electronic giving also allows parish members to contribute to the support of St. Andrew even when they are away on vacation, business travel, or when visiting relatives insist on attending the Naval Academy chapel or the National Shrine in Washington.
Status: The committee has done extensive work on this and St. Andrew by the Bay is apparently a step or two ahead of the Archdiocese.The archdiocese continues to try to work out a volume payment arrangement for all of the parishes with Merchant‘'s Bank but final resolution still appears to be in the distant future
