Why give to Ashburnham Church and Penhurst Church?

All the activities at St Peter’s Parish Church and Penhurst Parish Church are paid for by the generosity of those who attend. There's no central funding from the Church of England or the government, rather everything comes from those who give. Therefore, the cost of ministry (having a Vicar), children’s work, pastoral care, outreach, music, administration, heating and lighting, insurance and maintaining the buildings (the Churches and the Church Hall) is significant.  The only way in which we can do all these activities is through church members and friends from the local community and beyond partnering with us financially to support these areas of ministry. Our motivation to give as Christians ultimately comes from the Lord Jesus, who has given everything for us: ‘For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.’
