Donate to St. Paul's

St. Paul’s Anglican Church is not only Halifax’s most historic building—we also serve our community and provide a place of education and sanctuary in downtown Halifax. Whether you’re a member of the congregation, you live in the surrounding neighbourhood, or you’re a visitor to Halifax, your donation will go a long way to keeping St. Paul’s a vital, contributing member of our community.

Expenses for St. Paul’s historical building are over $8,000/month.

Donations of all sizes are welcome!  The real property and historical fabric of this parish, buildings, archives and organ … all draw people in to visit St. Paul’s!  And the upkeep of these come at a large cost.  For those who are interested in helping to preserve Canada’s longest continuously running Sunday school, donations are appreciated.  For those who prefer to support our Youth Ministry and other Outreach and Mission projects, these all come at a price as well.  We ask that you specify exactly where you wish for your donation to go, even if it’s GENERAL FUNDS (you prefer our Financial Team decides where it’s best needed) … every dollar is received with gratitude.   We have various ways for you to contribute, to make it as easy as possible for you.  See below:

*********

1. You can always donate in person at any services or events that you attend, or even if you’re simply popping by for a visit to our historic site during open hours!  We have two ‘drop off’ donation options for cash or cheque inside the church [a slot in our Welcome Desk in the foyer/Narthex and a wooden free-standing donation box at the beginning of the main aisle in the Nave].  We also have 2 TipTap Units [$10 TipTap and a $20 TipTap] in clear view when you visit!

2. We can also accept e-transfer!  Simply enter our new email address (stpaulshalifax1749@gmail.com) in your ‘recipients’ list when in your financial institution’s website; no password required – your funds will deposit to our account automatically and we are also notified automatically.  Our office then sends you a ‘thank you’ email to confirm that we did indeed receive it!

3.  You can also be automatically set up through our office so that a monthly donation comes out of your chosen account at the same time every month and then directly deposited to our church account with RBC.  It’s so convenient and such a great way to offer financial assistance without the need to be reminded, or when you are away on vacation, etc.  We call it Pre-Authorized Donating (PAD).  Simply contact our Parish Office to sign up!
