Different kinds of giving

here are obviously many different ways of giving. Some people give generously of their time and their talents to the church and these aspects are incredibly important. However, in order to continue its ministry and mission, the church needs money and this short leaflet is designed to inform you of some of our costs and encourage you to look prayerfully at your own giving.

Giving to God

It is good to think regularly about this aspect of our discipleship. There is a lot about it in the Bible, and it has always been an important subject in the history of the Church.

Talking about giving to God is not the same as making an appeal for money - it is about prayerfully considering giving in a way that is regular, as a proportion of income and as a sign of our discipleship.

How do I give financially?

There are various ways to give to the church...
