Tithing Information

Offer to God with Joy

"God loves a cheerful giver." (2 Corinthians 9:7)

Why Catholics Tithe

Tithing is an act of gratitude, faith and stewardship. Everything we possess comes from God, and giving back a portion acknowledges His providence while supporting the mission of the Church and helping those in need.

Biblical Teaching

"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse... and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven."

Malachi 3:10
"Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."

2 Corinthians 9:7
"Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the first fruits of all your produce."

Proverbs 3:9

Catholic Church Teaching

The Catholic Church teaches that the faithful have the duty to provide for the material needs of the Church according to their abilities.

"The faithful have the duty of providing for the material needs of the Church, each according to his own abilities."

Code of Canon Law, Canon 222 §1

Giving to the Church supports evangelization, charity, liturgy, clergy formation, and care for the poor.

Wisdom from the Saints

"The bread in your cupboard belongs to the hungry."

St. Basil the Great
"It is not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving."

St. Teresa of Calcutta
"Give something, however small, to the one in need. For it is not small to one who has nothing."

St. Gregory Nazianzen
