your Son, Jesus Christ;
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

for ever and ever.
Amen.

Your Financial Support for the Parish of Formosa is appreciated!
“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.” – Malachi 3:10
Tithing (giving 10% of your income) on a regular basis not only supports the work we do at at the Parish of Formosa. It doesn’t just support the Parish and the Chapelries. It also shows an obedience to God by making his work a financial priority in your life.
