Our national Home Mission appeal is often described as the
lifeblood of our Union. We are
grateful to our member churches whose regular giving enables the work of our National teams, our Association, and over £130,000 of investment in churches and projects here in
NWBA.

Count me in is our local personal giving scheme through which we invite anyone who can
to donate £5 per month to support new mission initiatives. You can either give to our shared fund
or allocate your gift to a specific initiative.

Meeting local costs
Everything we do is offered to our churches at no cost* as an expression of our shared covenant
of belonging together. However, if churches are able to contribute to some or all of the work
we do with them, this releases more to invest in local pioneer and mission initiatives.

*The only exceptions are the set fee for Safeguarding training and accomodation charges for some residential conferences.
Out in the garden?
This is a time of year when a lot of people get out in their gardens. Statistics indicate that the average UK household spends around £185 each year on their garden. In our North Western area, the figure is even higher at £240.
Not everyone will have a garden, but even if we have a tub or a window box,
or simply decide to buy a bunch of flowers to brighten up the house or cheer
up a friend - it wouldn’t be that hard to spend a fiver!
Spring is a great time to enjoy the outdoors - and why not? As Christians we
celebrate creation as something that has its origin in our God and signs of new life remind us of the eternal life that is ours through Christ. So alongside
the time and money spent enjoying the outdoors, would you be willing to
also invest £5 a month to support local churches here in NWBA? If everyone
did just that, it would make a real difference!
