Supporting Your Church

Thank you

We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your continued support and generosity towards our church. Your donations have allowed us to maintain our beautiful building, support our dedicated clergy and staff, and provide important programs and services to our community.

As a small community church, we rely heavily on the support of our members and friends to help us continue our mission of spreading the love and teachings of Jesus Christ. Your donations help us to offer a welcoming and inclusive space for worship and fellowship, and to reach out to those in need in our community through outreach programs and initiatives.

We are constantly inspired by the spirit of generosity and kindness that we see in our community, and we are humbled by the many ways in which you have supported us over the years. Whether it is through financial donations, volunteer work, or simply showing up to our services and events, your presence and support make a real difference in the lives of everyone at St. Mary's.

As we move forward, we are committed to continuing our work of serving our community and spreading the message of hope and love that lies at the heart of our faith. With your support and encouragement, we know that we can continue to make a positive impact in the lives of those around us.

With love and gratitude,

St. Mary's Church

Gift Aid (Tax Efficient Giving)

If you pay UK tax (Income or Capital Gains Tax) and would like us to be able to claim back the basic rate tax, please fill in, sign and return an on-going  Gift Aid Declaration to us . The benefit to St. Mary’s is that it can then recover the basic rate of income tax, currently 25p for each pound given. (If you pay higher rate tax, you may recover this through your own tax return.)

If you have any questions on these or other ways of giving, please email the church office: stmarysatherstone@gmail.com

Donations

In the Church

There is an open plate collection at the Sunday services. If you are a UK Tax Payer, please use one of the yellow giving envelopes available as they allow us to reclaim Gift Aid, adding an extra 25p for every £1 you donate.

We also have a contactless card charity fundraising device in the church for streamlined donations.
