Clear the Clutter ! - the last sale was at Raitha's on the A6 in the Summer of 2009 and raised over £2,000. If you have any goods you wish to sell and would like to give the proceeds to St. Wilfrid's, then please contact Sue Graves on 0116 279 1505.
Fleckney & Kibworth Praise is a joint venture between Fleckney New Life Fellowship, Kibworth Methodist Church and St Wilfrid’s. Fleckney & Kibworth Praise services are intended to be informal, modern and lively (yes, that means some clapping in time to the music and lots of happiness!). The services are held on one Sunday evening each month (see the Diary for details). You are most welcome to come to the next.
For further information contact Ludger Fremmer on 0116 279 2294 or email ludger.fremmer@tiscali.co.uk
The thriving Church Bookstall is open for business after every 10am service and during Lunch Stop on Thursdays. There is something for all ages and hopefully all tastes. Have a look and see if you can find a book to but for the summer holidays. Although currently stocked with books for sale and music CDs for loan, it is our intention to buy in cassettes and videos also for loan.
Gift Aid is a scheme that allows any charity to claim a refund of tax on money donated to it (currently 28p for every £1 given) The Gift Aid scheme has been drastically altered so that any donations (large, small, regular or one off) to our Church by a UK tax payer, that can be traced back to the donor, are valid for the recovery of tax. All the donor has to do is complete a Gift Aid declaration. There is no additional cost to you.
You must have paid or will have paid an amount of tax equal to the tax we reclaim. That tax can be on earned income, investments, bank and Building Society accounts or capital gains. The declaration states your name and address including postcode, a description of your gift and a statement that you wish the Church to reclaim the tax on your gift. The Church will ensure your donation and declaration are confidential.
We have written to all of you who are currently giving regularly to St Wilfrid's Church either by bankers standing order or through the envelope scheme asking you to complete a new Gift Aid declaration. This will supersede any covenant already in existence and enable us to administer all donations, from now on, in the same way. Other Church members who are included in the Prayer Diary will also be receiving details of the new form. If you don't hear from us please get in touch will Linda Taylor (2793392) or Michael Picken (2792745)
If you would prefer to make one-off gifts these can also benefit from the new regime and a declaration can be made on the Gift Aid envelopes that can be found at the back of St Wilfrids Church or ask a churchwarden, John Cox, Michael Picken or Linda Taylor.
Our aim is to maximise the recovery of tax on the gifts to our Church for God's work in this parish. Please help by filling in a declaration if you are a taxpayer and by telling other people about the scheme.
