Giving and Finance

Every day when we read our papers we seem to hear something about money. It’s really quite hard to escape the subject. As a church we don't tend to talk very much about money. It can be off-putting for visitors, and we never want people to feel under pressure.

However, giving is an important part of discipleship, and we do believe in being a generous church, giving cheerfully to the needs around us. Simply put, giving is part of our community life together.

What does the money get used for?

Your gifts support our church building, Ministry Team and every activity that happens every day across our community.

The Mission and ministry of our church which is represented; by every person who is visited, every school assembly taken, every bereaved family comforted, every baptism celebrated, every sermon preached, every Communion celebrated, and every person shown the love of Christ through our care, comfort and compassion.

Your gifts also help support mission both here in this local area, and overseas for people we will never meet but to whom we are able to give practical support through our ministry of prayer and giving.

For the moment our churches have separate bank accounts so please look below for further information.
