Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
All of us at Monyhull Church are excited about our plans to develop our church building. Monyhull Church is situated in the middle of a brand new housing estate in south Birmingham. Our aim is not just to be a Sunday church, but a church at the heart of the community.
We have planning permission to build an annexe to the existing building which will house a second hall, kitchens, toilets and a number of classrooms. We also need to do some rennovation work on the existing building. This work is vital to transform our facilities so that (1) the church has a much more suitable facility to meet in and house the expanding ministries of the church (2) so that we have a facility from which we can better serve the local community in all kinds of spiritual and practical ways.
So far the church is close to raising £700,000 - most of which has been raised from individuals in the church. We are currently approaching trusts and banks to raise the £500,000 in gifts or loans needed to enable us to build. Therefore, all of us in the church are spreading the word about the project and hoping that a few of our kind friends might support us in this great endeavour.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way: Monyhull Church gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
I'd be delighted if you can help. A lot of small gifts from interested friends would make a real difference. I've set myself a target of raising a further £1,000 from family and friends and if each of us in the church could do this we'd be well on the way to our target.
