The Cathedral and Abbey Church of Saint Alban
The cathedral is almost completely self-funding. We do not charge for entry. We do not have large historic reserves or income from assets. We reply on the sacrificial generosity of the congregation and those who visit us. We are all called to give what we can in response to what God has given us.
The Congregational Giving Team is responsible for encouraging the giving from the Abbey congregation. There are many ways to give generously and in a tax efficient way. Click below to learn more on how to give responsibly.
The Abbey also supports a wide-range of mission initiatives and needs. In overall terms, including special events and collections, the Abbey gave away over £38,300 in 2008.
The Congregational Giving Team as well as encouraging giving, also advises on those groups and organisations we wish to support through the giving of the congregation. In line with the biblical principle 10% of congregational giving is distributed each year.
Please support the work of the Abbey if you can. And thank you.
Please talk to any member of the Congregational Giving Committee if you would like to understand more about regular giving. Caroline and Tim Fleming, our Stewardship Recorders, will be happy to talk through any aspects of the Congregational Giving Form. They can be reached on 01582 460398.
