To: Pastors, Parish Administrators, and Parish Secretaries
From: Christopher (Kit) Parker, Executive Director, Office of Stewardship
Effective October 1, 2019, all processing of pledges and contributions to the Archbishop’s Annual Appeal will move from Agilis in Minnesota to Atlanta.
The new address is:
Archbishop’s Annual Appeal
Archdiocese of Atlanta
PO Box 2396
Smyrna, GA 30081-2396
This new address is being rolled out with the September pledge reminders and the third ask letter to previous donors, which is scheduled to mail later this week.
After October 1, 2019 all mail to Agilis or the postal lock box in Minnesota will be forwarded to the new postal lock box address in Atlanta. Other than the address, parishes will see little change in gift processing other than improvements.
Reasons for this change include:
• Increased efficiency and timeliness of gift processing, particularly during the in-pew time frame.
• Taking advantage of new technology that will more closely link processing to donor updates.
If you have any questions regarding these changes, please do not hesitate to contact the Office of Stewardship at (404) 920-7600 or annualappeal@archatl.com.
