Thank you for your interest in giving to St Mary's. We are incredibly grateful for all those who continue to support the work of the church. Our community only exists because of the great generosity of people like you.
WHY WE GIVE
The Bible clearly teaches that God has entrusted us with all we own and He expects us to be generous with what He has given us, especially with our money. In fact, Jesus spoke about being generous with our money more than any other moral issue. For this reason we believe it is important to give generously to the work of the church and to those in need in our community.
Whilst there is no fixed amount Christians are required to give, the principle of tithing (giving 10% of income) is found in the Bible as well as in the practice of the early Christians so this is a good starting point from which to grow your giving.
