Vatican, and our Cathedral of Clifton will be broadcasting services each day of

April
2020. Dear
Parishioners, We
hope you are all keeping safe in these very difficult times Now
that the churches of St John Fisher and St Richard are closed, there is no money
coming in on the weekly offertory plates which produce a substantial amount of
the total income of the parish. As
a result there is now a £1,300 per month shortfall between current income and
costs. This
is untenable if it continues and therefore we need to do something now. If
you usually give your donation to the church through the weekly plate, can
we please ask you to consider normalising it with a regular monthly Standing
Order/ gift-aided donation? Gift
Aid does not cost you anything if you pay any Income Tax and any income tax you
have paid on the money you donate will be given to the Parish by the inland
revenue. This makes every £1.00 you give into £1.25 A
Standing Order/Gift Aid form can be downloaded by clicking HERE.
Please email completed forms to John
Macaulay - ga.wellington.stjohnfisher@cliftondiocese.com If
you do not feel you are able to commit to a regular monthly payment at the
current time, this is appreciated as many of us will be facing our own financial
problems. However, any amount you can afford to give will be very much
appreciated and can be given by clicking the following button. Again this
donation can be “Gift Aided”
This
will help to keep the Parish from a potential difficult situation. Thank
you for taking the time to read this. With
Best Wishes Chris
