Support

As a service provider and non-profit making charity we rely totally on others to provide the support we need to not only maintain our existing ministries but also to see them develop and expand. That support is provided in three main areas.

PRAYER At the heart of any believing Christian community is the faith that there is a God who not only hears our prayers but also answers them. The City Mission staff and workers will regularly meet for prayer and will also share prayer needs with our partners in the form of a quarterly prayer diary. A number of our partners subscribe to our prayer e-mail which is sent as needs arise. Please contact us if you would like to committ yourself to praying for the work.

FINANCIALThe financial needs of the City Mission are met by individuals, churches, trusts and organisations that recognize the significant difference we are making to many lives across the city. Gifts can be allocated to any of the departments or specific projects that are in operation or simply to the general fund. Those individual partners who pay tax can sign a Gift Aid declaration which will enable us to recover the tax from the Inland Revenue. A finance form is available on request from the City Mission which includes a Gift Aid declaration and back mandate for those wishing to donate regularly by standing order.

PRACTICAL A number of our partners give their time by helping the City Mission in the various departments. Volunteer help is vital as it enables us to effectively deliver more services to our beneficiaries. Volunteering for the City Mission will enable you to explore, develop and use your gifts in a supporting caring environment. We would love to hear from you even if you only have a few hours to spare.
