The responsible stewardship of parishioners' donations is taken very seriously by St. Denis Parish.  As such, the church ensures that offertory collections are properly safeguarded, counted, deposited, and recorded. All collections are processed and deposited following the procedures mandated by the Diocese of Worcester.


     
There are approximately 8 volunteers that comprise four counting teams.  Each week, a different team counts the collections, and a proper segregation of duties ensures that the collections are accurately credited to the donors and deposited. All procedures follow the financial regulations of the diocese of Worcester.

It is the goal of all properly trained volunteer money counters to accurately count and deposit all parish collections. Each individual envelope is opened, verified, and the dollar amount recorded on the envelope (for posting to each individual’s record.) All information is to be kept confidential. 

         We are open to additional volunteers, as that will lighten the workload for everyone. Training is provided. We usually do the counting on Sunday mornings, from 10:00 AM, and it takes about 1 hour to complete our ministry.
