Although the full effect of our Stewardship Campaign won't be known until the end of the year, the initial results look very positive.
We can now say with certainty that Together We Made a Difference!
Since January this year the number of people giving by Standing Order has risen by 24% while the number of people using the Gift Aid scheme has gone up by 25%. There has also been an 8% increase in the number of members using the FWO envelopes. So thank-you all for your generous response and also for all the ideas and suggestions posted at the three Gatherings.
These have all been passed on to the Kirk Session, Congregational Board or other relevant group for consideration and we will keep you posted in future magazines and on our website with progress.
Pictures from the Gatherings have been posted on the website here.
