Our God is a Generous God

Harvest Thanksgiving

On Sunday 4th October here at St George’s, and on Saturday 10th October at our satellite congregation in Salinas, we are celebrating our Annual Harvest Festival, when we give thanks to God for the blessings of food, comfort and joy.

Generosity is at the heart of our faith. While we acknowledge God’s generosity to us, so we are called to share that blessing with others. Harvest is a time to give thanks but also to share what we have – which means thinking seriously about the use of our time, our skills and our money.

Traditionally at Harvest, the Chaplaincy invites members of our congregations, occasional members, visitors, supporters and friends to make a donation to the church or perhaps to volunteer for one of the unpaid jobs that are so vital for the running of an organisation like this. More information is available about donations and volunteering using the buttons below.

This year we would like to draw your attention to our regular giving scheme, through which you can make a commitment to donate a regular sum of money for a period of time. This helps the Church as it means we can predict our income and therefore use the money to better effect. Most members give monthly by bank transfer, and at year end they receive a certificate from the Church so the sum given can be offset against tax. Find out more by using the ‘regular giver’ button below. or go straight to the donation page here.

Thank you so much. Every gift, however large or small, will help to maintain and grow our Church as a place of blessing, renewal and of thankful living.
