COVID-19

The lifting of many restrictions on meeting in the aftermath of the worst part of the Covid-19 pandemic has meant that we have been able to meet as a congregation in St Bride’s for some time. However it is still apparent that the virus has not abated entirely and some are understandably reluctant to return to church in the meantime. But the work of the church continues and your free will offerings are critical to the financial well-being of the church and to its work. To continue giving one option for those of you who are set up for on-line banking is to transfer your donations electronically. This is simply done and if you would like to use this option the church bank details are as follows;

Danske Bank

Sort Code: 95 02 27

Account No.: 21009397

Important - please put a note of your free will offering number in the narrative for the transaction, e.g. FWO 234, so that our treasurer knows exactly who has sent it, as there are some occasions when the name on the bank account doesn’t match the person making the donation and who is registered in the church system.

Alternatively follow the link to the standing order form in the next section below, print a copy out, fill in all the required fields and post it to your bank. This will take a little time to set up so if you want to ensure that your annual contribution doesn’t drop please note how many weeks have been missed and at some stage, in hopefully the near future, you will be able to catch up with donations.

Free Will Offering - Standing Order

If you would prefer to contribute to the work of the church by paying regularly using a standing order instead of using the Free Will Offering envelopes then please click on the link below and print off a copy of the standing order mandate, complete the necessary details of your bank account, how much you would like to contribute and then sign it.  The church bank details have been completed already together with the monthly payment option. Take the completed form to your bank and they will set up the regular payment. Please inform the Freewill Offerings Secretary, Ashley Hurst, that this has been done.
