Opportunity for a Youth worker at All Saints Childwall
I am delighted to be able to share with you that we will be able to employ a Youth Worker at all Saints.
The total pledges made towards this position have met our target of £45,000. An enormous thank you to all of you that have made pledges.
Thank you to all of you that have fulfilled your pledges over the last few weeks. If you haven’t yet please will you read the information below.
How can you fulfil you pledge?
To fulfil your pledges please see the information at the bottom of this weekly sheet or take a printed information sheet from the back of church that will detail the different ways you can give.
Our preferred method of giving as a church is through the Parish Giving Scheme as gifts come into the church bank account with tax reclaimed without us having to complete any administration which obviously saves a lot of time.
