To care for and maintain a building as beautiful, but as old, as St Johns takes a considerable amount of time and love.
It also, unfortunately, takes a considerable amount of money. If you are able, please do consider making a regular donation to St Johns by using the button below and setting up a recurring gift.
Spare Change
Would you like to pop any spare change you may have into the big red bucket at the back of church – every penny really does add up and it can be put to good use in our church.
Thank you!
Leaving a legacy
LORD our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a temple for your Holy Name comes from your hand, and all of it belongs to you
Making a difference
For many churches, regular giving is absorbed in ‘keeping the show on the road’. This usually involves everyday activities such as paying the parish share, insuring and heating the building, repairing the roof etc.
For example, a gift in your Will could support your church’s ministry to young people, refurbish the kitchen, support an overseas mission partner, help to reorder the church, preserve their historic church bells or equip the church with new Bibles.
No matter how large or small, each gift can make a significant impact on our mission and ministry, and maintaining our spiritual heritage.
Please consider how a gift in your Will could help the Church meet the needs of future generations.
Church and fabric building
Every church is a part of the local landscape and community. Many of our churches are improving their toilet and kitchen facilities, building better access, opening rooms for functions and creating warm, welcoming environment for all. A gift in your will could help protect our unique heritage now, and for future generations.
Mission and ministry
Do you wish your church could reach out to the vulnerable in your local community? Many of our churches are transforming their communities by working in areas of great need. Your gift could pay for an outreach activity such as a soup kitchen for the homeless, debt counselling or a befriending service for the elderly.
Youth
A legacy gift could fund a crèche or an after-school club, enabling the Church to reach out to young families and their children in the community. In addition many Church’s would like to employ a Youth and Children’s Worker to encourage more children and young people to attend church regularly; a future legacy could help achieve this.
Music
Over many centuries organists, singers and composers have passed down strong musical traditions, which continue to play a leading role in the musical and cultural life of the Church . Your gift could provide music or vestments for the choir, or enable the organ to be rebuilt.
