God is the great giver.... For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich (2 Corinthians chapter 8 verse 9) We believe in every member ministry! God has gifted us with talents and abilities that we can use to grow His Kingdom of which the ministry of the church is a part. If you would like help with discerning what your gifts and abilities are please get in touch with Antony Wilson via the office. There are a wide range of ministries that you can get involved with, some of which are some on the website. God has also entrusted to us resources out of which we are called to support His ministry through the local church – from 2 Corinthians 9:7 ‘each person should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver’. You can give to the ministry here by using weekly envelopes, or by a standing order – forms are at the back of church. If you are a tax payer it can help us if you complete a Gift Aid form so that we can reclaim the tax on your gift. Details of our Finance Policy and Annual Accounts are available on the noticeboard at the back of church. If you have any questions please contact the office. If you need help or advice about managing finances or debt there is helpful information on the noticeboards at the back of church. Credit Action is a national organisation that also provides support.
