St. Mary’s Church was founded in 1862. To commemorate this date, we have created the 1862 Society as our annual giving campaign. Funds will be utilized to expand our ministries and enhance projects within our church.  Donors will receive benefits such as small gifts or tickets to attend parish events.

We invite you to join the 1862 Socety. In keeping with the name of the society, we request a donation in the amount of $18.62 per month or $223.44 per year. This will be our annual ask each year.

Individuals who have fulfilled the annual gift or confirm their annual pledge prior to June 30, 2021 have been designated as Founding Members of the 1862 Society.

We challenge our STM community and the greater Westfield area to reach 1,862 members this year which will unlock a matching gift of $18.62 per member.

Please note that this is an Annual Giving Appeal for our parish and is completely separate from the weekly envelopes. Become a member of St. Mary's Society.  Society levels and benefits are described below.
