Tax Receipts Are Now Available To Collect In The Church Foyer

New sets of 2023/24 Planned Giving Envelopes are now available for collection in the Church Foyer. 

Due to supply issues, these sets are slightly larger than previous years. We encourage all Parishioners to join the giving system by either Weekly Envelope or Monthly Credit Card as this is the main income of the parish, by means of which we run everyday expenses, funds projects and plan for the future. 

If you would like to join, forms are available in the Church Foyer which can be returned via any collection plate or directly to the parish office.
