St Mark's Planned Giving ... what you need to know

Solomon, Jotam and Roger ... about to get to work on St Mark's clean up day 

We believe that our Lord has planned great things for His congregation at St Mark's. In order to support this work we must all help to ensure that the congregation has the funds available to carry out the work.

To this end we ask you to prayerfully consider your giving towards the Lord's work in this place and commit yourself to an amount that you can contribute regularly.

"Each one should give as he has decided, not with regret, or out of a sense of duty; for God loves the one who gives gladly."

2 Corinthians 9:7.

Now it is possible to get close to the projected budget of R500 000 in 2011, if all members of the congregation put their hands to the plough. Assume we have 110 active members and we give as follows:

• 5 Members each contribute R1 500 a month    R7 500
• 5 Members each contribute R1 000 a month    R5 000
• 10 Members each contribute R 750 a month    R7 500
• 10 Members each contribute R 500 a month    R5 000
• 20 Members each contribute R 250 a month    R5 000
• 30 Members each contribute R 100 a month    R3 000
• 30 Members each contribute R 50   a month    R1 500
• 110 Members                                                R35 000 

• Hire of the Hall and other gifts that may come   R5 000

                                                                                R40 000
