Giving

Giving financially is a response to God’s boundless grace and generosity to us.

As with many other charities, the pandemic years have really curtailed our ability to fundraise.

St Andrew's Parish Church is open every day for all of us:

• Regular Services and church festivals (Christmas, Mothering Sunday,  Easter, Harvest, Remembrance Sunday)
• Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals
• Children’s activities (Toddler Group, Youth Club and Sunday School)
• Somewhere quiet to go
• The Open Door (a place to meet and share refreshments)

The regular church-goers are faithful and very generous and donate enough money to pay for the church Ministry. However, after that is paid, the church still has to find the money to pay for all the running costs such as utility bills, maintenance of the church buildings and part of the churchyard, stationery, music and office expenses, licences and insurance. 

We do have some reserves but, with the difficulties we have all faced in recent times, and despite very careful management, the church ran a deficit in 2020 and 2021 and will do so again in 2022. 

If you would like to make a donation to support the Ministry of St Andrew's Church, or if you value it as a beautiful and historic building, please visit our Give a Little online giving page or use the QR code below.  Thank you.
