“Praise be to you, O Lord.
Everything comes from you,
and we have given you only what comes from your hand.”
(1 Chronicles 29)
We believe that giving is not just about money. But nurturing and growing our shared life and vision does require money. Christ Church Dore does not receive any regular funding from outside agencies, nor from the Government. Our income comes from the generous giving of church members, from our own pockets. Some of it can be Gift Aided, which helps enormously. There are a variety of ways to support our ongoing ministry in the local community, our contributions to needier areas within the Diocese of Sheffield, and our mission partners in poorer parts of the world.
The PCC has endorsed the introduction of the Parish Giving Scheme, a safe and simple way to support the work of our church using the security of a direct debit guarantee.
Under this scheme the tax paid will be reimbursed, typically within 18 days, on regular monthly donations with gift aid. This will be much quicker than the current rather cumbersome procedure that only happens quarterly.
The scheme is supported and encouraged by the diocese and operates throughout the Church of England, with the benefit that the diocese will bear the costs. Whilst there are costs, if you give £100, Christ Church Dore will receive £100 (and an extra £25 with Gift aid).
With your permission, it is possible to arrange for your donation to be protected from inflation. If you choose, PGS will calculate the difference and notify you each year in advance to ask if you are happy to increase your gift by the cost of living. You may change your instruction at any time, by phone, email or letter.
For an instant quick donation option, use our 'Give a Little' Page.
