She believes that giving such "restricted donations" will assure that they remain with the parish. She wants nothing of her donations to reach the diocese or to be subject to the annual diocesan tax. Can the pastor accept such gifts? If so, must they be reported as "ordinary parish income"? And would they be subject to the diocesan tax, or not? |
