May 2025 Newsletter (Non Parish Specific)
Greetings!
We are ready to bid farewell to April showers and enjoy May flowers! There is something heavenly about the beauty of plants bursting forth and changing the landscape of the garden into a land full of fresh colorful blooms and green promise. Here at Faith Direct, it is our favorite season, and it never fails to fill us with wonder at the resilience of nature. Song of Solomon 2:12 says “The flowers appear on the earth; The time of singing has come, And the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.”
May the beauty of God’s world and the sound of singing bring you joy this month!
As always, Faith Direct is honored to be part of your parish throughout the year.

Faith Direct will process donations on:
Monday - 5/5
Thursday – 5/15
Faith Direct will disburse monies to the Parish on:
Friday– 5/9
Wednesday – 5/21
*Please Note: There is a four-business day period after donations are processed to reconcile transactions with bank and credit card companies before we disburse monies to your church account.
If your parish is currently offering one debit date and would like to add a second, you can contact your Client Relations Manager directly or send an email to clientcare@faithdirect.net.
Important Update: New Enrollment & Payment Policy
Occasionally we receive checks from donors intended for a Faith Direct church. Our standard practice was to mail the check back to the donor informing them we can only accept electronic payments and direct them to your church’s giving page. Going forward, we will be shredding the checks for your donor’s security and reaching out to let you know we did not cash it. Please remind parishioners that we are an online electronic company, we do not accept checks.
