 Bishop of Horsham Rev. Ruth Bushyager, (St. Paul's Dorking) has been appointed to serve as Bishop of Horsham. Official Announcement *** Introduction & Welcome Video Parish Giving Scheme
Many members of our church use the Parish Giving Scheme to make their gift each month. This is a Direct Debit scheme which also reclaims Gift Aid. This is enormously helpful since, although we are not meeting in church, our expenditure has not substantially changed. We still need to support our mission, pay the insurance on the church building, continue our outward giving and contribute towards our parish share which covers clergy costs across the diocese, including Bolney.
If you give through PGS and want to adjust your giving, you can contact them at info@parishgiving.org.uk or call 0333 002 1260.
 Family Support Work Non-perishable goods, toiletries, pasta, cereals, tinned goods etc are especially welcome at this challenging time. Our FSW basket is currently in the Eight Bells pub. Please continue to donate when you collect from our Community shop. Please help by being vigilant Even though our church is currently locked and being checked every day for any intrusion, if you are walking by, please continue to be vigilant from the outside. Contact either churchwarden is you are suspicious of any untoward activity. Plastic milk bottle tops Please continue to save your plastic milk bottle tops. Once church is open again please drop them in the bin. They raise funds for the Chestnut Tree Children's Hospice resources. It is worth noting that these tops cannot be recycled in your wheelie bin. Legacies Once you have made provision for your loved ones in your will, please consider leaving a legacy to our beautiful church. Our policy can be found on: https://www.stmarymagdalenebolney.org.uk/support-us/legacy/ |
