The work of our church is entirely funded by the congregation. If you are a regular member of St. John's Wonersh or St. Martin's Blackheath please consider prayerfully your contribution to support God's ministry in this parish and within our community.
We encourage church members to make a regular and prayerful commitment to support the work of our churches through a weekly or monthly gift, a one-off gift or an occasional gift. Regular gifts are particularly useful for our churches as this allows us to plan budgets through the year.
Parish Giving Scheme
We recommend that church members use the Parish Giving Scheme for regular giving, which is a convenient and easy way to manage your giving. If you are a tax payer you can sign a Gift Aid declaration through the Parish Giving Scheme which allows the church to reclaim basic rate tax on all donations you make.
