Giving Levels

Chasuble Level$1,200 ($100 monthly)

Chasubles are outer vestments worn by the celebrant during the Eucharist. The chasuble may be oval or oblong with an opening for the head. It typically reflects the liturgical color of the day. The chasuble is derived from the outdoor cloak worn during the early days of the Church in the Greco-Roman world. Chasubles vary widely in fabric and style.

Miter Level – $2,500 ($208 monthly)

Miters are hats, usually white, gold, or red, sometimes quite beautifully embroidered. The triangular shape is supposed to represent the tongues of fire that rested on the heads of the disciples on the Day of Pentecost when God sent the Holy Spirit to them. A bishop receives a miter during his ordination and consecration when the Holy Spirit comes to the new Bishop in the same way that the Holy Spirit came to the first disciples. 

Pectoral Cross Level – $5,000 ($417 monthly)

The Pectoral Cross, typically made of silver or gold, was used by the Bishop of Rome in the 13th century and came into general use by all bishops in the 16th century. The cross is suspended by a chain around the neck and usually hangs at about the breastbone or pectoral muscles of the wearer. Some pectoral crosses are adorned with jewels.

Episcopal Ring Level – $10,000 ($834 monthly)

The Episcopal Ring has been received by new bishops since the Middle Ages at their ordination and consecration as a sign of the office. It can be a signet ring, with the Diocese seal inscribed in the ring’s metal or stone. The ring then can be used on official documents that call for the Bishop to affix a seal in sealing wax. Modern Episcopal rings are often made of gold and ornamented with the purple gem amethyst. The Episcopal ring is usually worn on the ring finger of the Bishop’s right hand.
