Helping to run the Parish

Who helps to makes it all run smoothly?

PARISH FINANCE COMMITTEE The Finance Committee ensures that the Books are properly kept and audited. It assists with creating and monitoring the budget for the income and expenditure of the Church and other property. Canon Law requires that all parishes have a Finance Committee, and Charities Legislation lays an obligation on the Parish to keep good accounts.

GIFT AID The Parish is member of the Shrewsbury Diocesan Scheme. Gift Aid is a method of obtaining Tax Funds on money given to charities where the donor is a UK tax payer. Donations may be given by the Envelope Scheme or Standing Orders and the tax paid on the income offered is reclaimed for the Parish, provided that the donor is liable for sufficient tax in the year to cover the money reclaimed by the Covenant. No one is liable to any further tax. And the deed can be cancelled at any one time. To join or for details Tel. Peter Watterson, 428141 or the Clergy.

PARISH MEETING Gives you the opportunity to share your hopes, thoughts and experience for the benefit of all and the meetings are held three times a year. The Parish gathered together at this meeting is referred to as the PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL. We try to discern the direction the parish should be taking in the light of suggestions from parishioners, the needs of the community in which we live and guidance received from our Bishop and the Pope. Meetings are open to all members of the parish and each Groups is invited to send representatives.
