how you can help us
We depend on regular giving by church members to sustain our day-to-day ministry, our work in the community and our giving to charitable and mission groups.
We give a tithe (around a tenth) of our income to mission organisations and established charities such as Tearfund, Christian Aid and the Barnabas Fund.
We have a Missions Giving Committee that allocates our church giving. If you have a suggestion for a good cause please email the church administrator.
We encourage all church members to to set aside a proportion of their income for giving to St Mark’s, and to give regularly (monthly or weekly).
gift aid
When you make a donation to us, because we are a registered charity, we are able to claim back the tax that you have paid on the donation. This mechanism is called Gift Aid and amounts to an extra 25p for every £1 that you give. You must be a UK taxpayer for your donation to qualify for Gift Aid.
other ways you can donate
We also welcome one-off and occasional gifts by the following methods (let us know if you are a UK taxpayer):
-
Cheque: payable to ‘St Mark’s PCC’. Cheques can be posted to the church office: 337 Kennington Park Road, London, SE11 4PW.

Direct payment: please contact our church administrator who will happily give you our bank details.
