Godparent Giving Scheme

The Godparents Scheme is a voluntary giving initiative inviting people to make a regular or one-off donation specifically to support:

  • The Children & Families Worker salary
  • Family Church and toddler group running costs
  • Events and outreach for children and families

The overall aim being to build and grow the church through our children and youth work. It is separate from general giving and will be a designated fund within church accounts. It could however be used if necessary in order to support any aspect of this work, such as emergency works to the building, although efforts would first be placed upon external grant funding for such reasons.

The Godparents Scheme is a way for individuals, families and organisations to support the children’s, families’ and community work of St James the Deacon Church.

Just as godparents promise to stand alongside a child, this scheme invites supporters to care practically, give generously and pray faithfully. You don’t need to be a church member to be involved. You can use the QR code below to give to this scheme, or follow this link: https://givealittle.co/c/thegodparentsscheme

If you’re visiting the church, you can also give using our SumUp machine which you’ll find near the entrance.
