Why should I give?

As members of God's family we belong to Him. All that we are and all that we have are His. Part of our family responsibility is to invest the resources He gives us for His purposes and for His glory. In the Bible God calls us to respond to Him in thankfulness by giving to and through our local church where we are fed and nurtured. We are asked to give liberally, joyfully, generously and freely, and in proportion to our ability. These principles are set out in A Short Guide to Biblical Teaching and Giving and the Church of England has produced a great booklet The Money Revolution to help Christians think about their finances.  Copies of the later are available free to church members on the bookstall.

Ways of Giving

The mission of Holy Trinity Church is largely funded from the church membership’s regular giving. Collections are not taken during services but there is a collection stand in the foyer for all Sunday services.

Ways to give include regular giving as well as one off payments from bonuses, gifts, spare capital, inheritances and legacies.

Legacies

If you would like to make a legacy to Holy Trinity Church, giving in this way could reduce your Inheritance Tax by 40% on the amount of the gift.

Gift Aid

Charities like Holy Trinity Church are able to reclaim basic rate tax on all donations we receive from you if you are a UK taxpayer. For every £100 you give us using this scheme, we can claim back another £28.20 from the Government, at no cost to you. If you pay UK tax and have not already done so, please download and return the Gift Aid Declaration to the Pledge and Gift Secretary.

Standing Order

The most effective means to give to Holy Trinity Church is via a standing order payment. Standing orders can be set up for monthly, quarterly or annual payments. All you need to do to give in this way, is fill in our Banker's Order Form, sign it and return it to the Pledge and Gift Secretary. If appropriate please also complete the gift aid form. We will do the rest - recording it, sending it to your bank and claiming any tax relief due under Gift Aid.

If you have any question regarding this web page or Giving in general, please contact the Pledge and Gift Secretary, Gerrit Smit through the Church Office or by email. Any information shared will be in strictest confidence.
