Dear St. Matthias Family,
Thank you all for your continued generosity to St. Matthias in 2022. Despite difficult economic conditions this year, your commitment to our church is humbling and gratifying. As the year comes to a close, we would like to remind you about IRS regulations with regard to end-of-year giving.
The IRS requires us to record only those offerings received by December 31, 2022 as 2022 giving. Any gift received on or after January 1, 2023 must be recorded in 2023, regardless of the date on the check. The only exception is a gift sent by mail. If that gift is postmarked on or before December 31, 2022, but received in January, it may be counted as 2022 giving. The IRS rule applies to gifts made by cash or bank transfer. The funds must be in the church office or bank account by December 31, 2022, to be counted as 2022 giving. Please plan accordingly.
Thank you again for your support.
God's blessings on you, your family, and our St. Matthias church family during this most holy season.
Mary Podlesny
Finance Committee Chair
