We believe that everything we have comes from God, and that giving is part of our response to him. We want to do what he wants with all areas of our lives, including our money; it is the generosity of the church family that enables us to pursue our vision.
General Giving - One off and regular gifts
There are several ways you can give regularly to the work of St Matthew’s…
1. Through the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS), which is the easiest way to give regularly. You set up a direct debit payment through the Church of England to St Matthew’s and gift aid is claimed automatically if you sign a declaration as a taxpayer. PGS has launched a telephone service to enable prospective donors to set up a regular Direct Debit gift over the phone. Call the dedicated telephone number: 0333 002 1271. Lines are open Monday to Friday, between 9 – 5pm. You will need to have your bank account details, church/parish name and St Matthew’s PGS parish code which is 10-1070145-CHICH.
You can also find PGS forms to fill out in the rack at the back of church or via finance@stmatthewsworthing.org. To find out more please visit www.parishgiving.org.uk/home/
