Supporting Through Giving

In achieving our aims, we recognise with appreciation the voluntary help given so generously by many church members and friends.

Financial support is vital but the various skills with which each of us is blessed can be put to use at services, through outreach into the community and in the administration and maintenance of church activities and premises.

If you feel able to give of your skills in any way, please speak to a Steward or email: info@stmarksmaidenhead.org.uk

Financial support can be given in a variety of ways. If you wish you may give regularly through:

  • Collections at services
  • Standing orders arranged through your bank or building society. (Click here to print off a Standing Order Form).
  • Our envelope scheme, (where a specified sum is given weekly in envelopes during services).

or you can give single gifts by post to:

St. Mark's Crescent Methodist Church, St Mark's Crescent, Maidenhead, SL6 5BQ.

Gift Aid

If you are a UK taxpayer, you can enable the church to benefit from the Gift Aid Scheme and reclaim tax from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs. Please contact us to obtain a Gift Aid Form.

How Our Money Is Used

Our principle aim is to support the Methodist Church and other good causes. We also share responsibility for Methodist and Circuit Expenses, including Ministers' salaries, upkeep of their homes and support for other churches in need of assistance.

We must meet the essential costs of maintaining our outstandingly well-kept premises and plan for future expenditure on buildings and equipment.

We recognise the importance of reaching out beyond our immediate needs and make regular and special donations to a wide range of charitable causes.

A Benevolence Fund, maintained by freewill offerings at Holy Communion Services, is used in emergencies, particularly for individuals in urgent need of help.

The Treasurer's Report is published in the Annual Report, available either from Church Stewards or if you prefer to receive an electronic version click here to download a pdf version.
