“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7)
We rely entirely on the giving of church members to operate, and we’re very grateful to them and to God for their generosity which supplies our needs.
Our budget each year is around £99,000, of which about £53,500 goes towards the cost of clergy, and £12,000 towards our Mission Partners. (2024 budget figures)
People give towards this in various ways. These are listed in order of what is most helpful for us to administer:
- By Bank Standing Order / Internet Banking – please see the leaflet below for our bank details
- By our weekly envelope scheme
- Via the Offering Box on a Sunday
UK Tax Payers can boost their giving by using Gift Aid.
