Giving

King’s Church Uckfield is only able to do what we do because of the faithful and generous giving of its members.

Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.  2 Corinthians 9:7

At King’s Church Uckfield we want to be willing and cheerful givers, offering money alongside time and prayer as our worship to God. We don’t ask for any financial contribution from occasional visitors, people on Alpha and other courses, or users of groups like The Ark toddler group.

Here are some reasons why we give financially:

  • Because everything we have comes from God – it all belongs to him really. As David prayed: “All things come from you and of your own we give to you.”
  • Because we worship God, not possessions. No-one can serve two masters and we choose to serve God, resisting the temptation that money becomes an “idol”.
  • Because we trust God to provide our needs. We give in faith and sometimes we choose to give sacrificially, trusting that He will supply all we need.
  • Because we want to support the local church. God’s people at work in the local community need resources, facilities, services and more to fulfill his call.

Legacies

We ask our committed members to prayerfully consider making a gift to King’s Church in their will. We are investing in God’s work both now and for generations to come. It is not difficult to arrange this kind of gift, usually known as a legacy. You can ask a solicitor for advice or have an initial chat with one of the church leadership team.
