SPRED Special Second Collection – 14 February 2021: <\/strong>Our Paisley Diocese SPRED offers people with learning disabilities: a personal friend who takes time to share life and faith, spiritual nurture in a small community of faith; and a sense of belonging to a parish community.\u00a0 Twenty-one SPRED groups meet in our church halls and special needs schools, allowing two hundred parishioners to come together in faith and friendship to share and experience God\u2019s love.\u00a0 Sadly, our groups have not been able to meet in the past year due to the pandemic. Paisley SPRED supports three employees.\u00a0 In 2018 SPRED merged with the Diocese bringing in one-off restricted reserves of \u00a395,492. Our SPRED boxes and Friends Campaign raised an additional \u00a320,834 bringing the total income to \u00a3116,326. The Diocese also contributed \u00a344,131 from our General Fund (pre-merger) and Papal & Episcopal Funds. With our expenditure of \u00a372,221, SPRED restricted reserves ended the year at \u00a388,235.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Parish Finances: <\/strong>Our Parish income has been greatly affected this last year. The Parish and Diocese are dependent on your weekly donations to enable bills to be paid, to make repairs\u00a0and maintain our church properties, as well as supporting the clergy and the ongoing pastoral work of our Parish and the Diocese. You may wish to consider a Standing Order<\/strong> to be paid directly to the parish account (weekly\/monthly). You can download the form from the Parish websites or one can be posted to you. Thank you to all those who have recently moved to Standing Order so as to be able to support our finances regularly. \u00a0Another way of helping the parish is by gift aiding your donations. If you are a tax payer Gift Aid increases your donation by 25%<\/strong>. Your Gift Aid donation would be worth 25p more for every \u00a31 donated. <\/strong><\/p>\n

You can also donate to our Parish is by using MyGivingHub from PayaCharity. The Diocese of Paisley have set up this facility so that any donations you make can be allocated directly to our own Parish. You can access this via our Parish Websites or through Diocesan website. Thank you once again for your generous response.<\/p>\n
