DID YOU KNOW, YOU CAN SUPPORT YOUR CHURCH, EVEN WHEN YOU’RE NOT HERE?

Our expenditure amounts to approximately £1,400 per week. This includes £850.11 per week which goes to the Diocese for our “Share”. Last weeks donations were as follows: Planned Giving £962.10 (including Standing Orders)
Collections £256.84. Our income tax claim produces the equivalent of an additional £170 approx per week. The shortfall is made up from fundraising—such as fetes, concerts etc. If you pay Income Tax-in each chair can be found a yellow giving envelope. Loose collection can be placed in these envelopes, completing the details requested (this will enable us to reclaim 28p in every £ from the Inland Revenue). If you are a non-tax payer, please put your loose collection straight into the collection bags when they are passed around during the service. Through our Planned Giving Scheme, you can commit a regular amount in order that we may be able to rely on a predictable income to meet our needs and responsibilities. Whilst we are thankful to those who use the envelopes, we need new members to consider joining the Planned Giving Scheme. Please contact our Hon. Treasurer - Mr John Sprackling (01202) 751553 or via Email: sprackling@branksomepark.freeserve.co.uk
Thank You.
