Give
St Francis depends on your generosity to make all we do possible. Start your regular online giving today, or ask us about setting up a standing order.
Our preferred way to give is a monthly gift through the Parish Giving Scheme. It’s free to use, with no charge to you or the church, and if you’re a UK taxpayer your Gift Aid is claimed for you automatically. That saves us a great deal of time and admin, so more of your gift can go to the work of the church.
We believe that as a local church we are called to serve the Mackworth estate and to be generous with what we have, as everything we have is God’s anyway. We believe the costs of running the church should come from the members of the church.
If you are a member of St Francis and would like to give, or if for any reason you would like make a gift, everything is gratefully received.
ONE OFF DONATION
Make a one-off donation online using the Parish Giving Scheme.
Or in church you can give cash or use our contactless giving point.
Please note these contactless donations sadly cannot be gift aided.
GIVE REGULARLY...
There are three ways to do this:
1) Parish Giving Scheme
The Parish Giving Scheme is a great way to set up a regular donation at no cost to either you or the church. Simply click on the link below and it’ll take you straight to the Parish Giving Scheme website where you can set up a Direct Debit easily online. You can also set it up by phone on 0333 002 1260.
Please note that this replaces giving through Churchsuite which requires a fee to be paid.
2) Standing Order
Prefer a standing order? Email hello@stfmackworth.org or call 01332 504680 and we’ll send you the details and a Gift Aid form. That way we can claim Gift Aid on your gift.
3) Stewardship
If you use Stewardship then you can make regular or one-off donations through their website:
GIFT AID...
Gift Aid is a really valuable source of income for the church. If you pay Income or Capital Gains tax in the UK, we can claim an extra 25p on every £1 given, at no extra cost to you.
To enable us to do this, please select "Claim Gift Aid" when making any type of donation online. If you are giving via a cash donation, cheque or through a standing order please fill out a Gift Aid form.

If you wish to write a cheque, please make it payable to 'St Francis Mackworth’
