Giving @ FPC

As disciples, knowing God, showing God, and sharing God, the way we organise our priorities is of paramount importance. If Jesus is the centre of our life, then all our decisions should be directed to Him.

Our morning service contains the following words: “all things come from you [God] and of your own do we give you.” Since the Lord has provided us with so much in material terms, it is both our responsibility and our joy to give back to him. It is an act of gratitude as well as an act of faith in God our provider.

It is the practice in many churches to give 10% of income back to the church and this is a helpful figure to bear in mind. However, it is far more important to give whole-heartedly since “God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Cor 9:7)

Making a regular payment is the most helpful way for us as a church, as this enables us to plan for ministry development in the knowledge of a regular income.

If you are a UK taxpayer, we benefit (at no extra cost to you) if you sign a Gift Aid Declaration. This enables us to claim an additional 25% from the Government. You need to make sure that you will have paid enough tax in the Tax Year to cover the amount that the church reclaims on your giving. Simply email your competed form to us.
