Giving

To give sacrificially is a mark of our discipleship and expresses our love for God and His church.
Financial giving releases ministry both here and further afield.

An invitation to pray...

  • Thank God for His faithfulness and provision to St Giles over hundreds of years.

  • Thank God for those who already invest their treasure, time and talents in St Giles.

  • Pray for everyone in church to have open hearts and minds about how God is asking them to invest in His kingdom.

  • Pray personally that God would guide you in reviewing your giving.

  • Ask for guidance and protection for the whole church over the area of giving.
