Financial Giving

You may have noticed that we rarely mention money on Sundays and that we do not take a collection or offering during our services. There are two reasons for this:
1.We exist to “Connect your Community to Christ”, to help people to hear and understand the message of Jesus Christ. We find that not asking for money from visitors helps them to relax, listen freely and ask questions. We are not after your money!
2.We believe that a local church is made up of Christ’s people gathered in that place. This means that West Kirby URC’s finances are the responsibility of its members and regular attenders. They have the primary responsibility before God for funding the church.
West Kirby URC wants to use its money wisely, to help people to grow to know and love Jesus.We’re not afraid to spend money to build God’s Kingdom, but we know it’s important to steward our finances. The church is a registered charity (no. 1128869) and the elected Elders and Treasurer serve as Trustees. We invest our reserves ethically and our accounts are independently examined each year.
