Supporting Your Church
DONATION METHODS
Most (just under 90%) of the general income used to pay the day to day running costs of the church comes directly from your Offertory donations, so, it is vitally important that you do what you can to support the parish financially even if currently you are unable to attend Mass, provided of course your circumstances allow it. You can do this either by
- setting up a Standing Order through your bank in favour of St Teresa’s Catholic Church. You can download the necessary form here to send to your bank; or do it online using the banking details given in the form, or
- making a one-off payment direct to the parish bank account, using the details in the above mentioned form; or
- using the diocesan on-line donation facility; or,
- sending your donation through the postal system; or
- if you are passing by the church, dropping it off through the Presbytery door using either one of your “Gift Aid“ envelopes or, in a plain envelope marked with what the donation is for e.g. “Offertory Donation”, Mass Stipend, General donation etc. In all cases cheques should be made payable to “St Teresa’s Catholic Church”.
GIFT AID YOUR DONATION
Gift Aid is a method, approved by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (HMRC), of substantially increasing the value of your offerings at absolutely no cost or inconvenience to you. Your donations are whatever you feel you can afford and need not be a fixed commitment. Whatever you give is gratefully received as your personal support to the Parish. Gift Aid can be applied to all your donations whether regular or occasional and you can stop, start or vary what you pay whenever you decide; and no one will ‘chase’ you for money.
