Parishioner Letters of Good Standing

Unfortunately, many individuals who requests such signed statement:

• have not registered in our parish,
• have no record of any stewardship or involvement in the parish,
• is not known to anyone on the parish staff, or has moved to another area or just arrived from another area and has no record of being involved here or there.

Therefore, in order to be considered an active parishioner in good standing at St. Patrick's Cathedral and would like to receive validation of this, the following is required:

• Become involved in some parish program or activity.
• Fulfill your obligation to participate in Sunday Mass and Holy Days and either use your envelope or an online giving form so that your financial contribution may be tracked, and we may also send you a receipt for your charitable deduction.
• If you are a young adult child of parents in the parish, register yourself here, or wherever you attend Mass. 
• If you come from another parish and would like us to offer a Letter of Good Standing for you, please bring some statement from your previous parish that you were a practicing parishioner there.
• Finally, if you move, register in the parish at your new location, and notify us that you have moved.

The purpose of these Letters of Good Standing, is to show that St. Patrick's Cathedral values the example and commitment of godparents and sponsors and faithful Catholics.
 
Finally, please note that our parish registrations are used by St. Patrick's Cathedral and  the Archdiocese of New York. In no way will your information be shared with any outside organization.

Parishioner Stewardship Program Registration Form

"It is God’s power to provide you richly with every good gift; thus you will have ample means in yourselves to meet each and every situation,
with enough to spare for every good cause."
II Corinthians 9:8

As a faith community, we recognize that all we have – our time, our talents, our treasure, even our very lives – are gifts from God. We are called to be good stewards of all these gifts, investing them wisely and generously. Financial stability is essential in sustaining our ministry here at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, and we are most grateful for the generous support we receive from our active parishioners.

The vision of our Parishioner Stewardship Program is simple – create an easier and more efficient way for our parishioners to fulfill their offertory obligations to St. Patrick’s Cathedral, so that we can ensure future success in ministry.

Our goal here at St. Patrick’s Cathedral is 100% participation in this program from all parishioners…can I count on you to answer the call to lead the way for all other parishioners?
