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.
Back to School
It's that time of year when the schools begin to go back with a whole raft of uniform and equipment to buy. It is estimated that the average cost of being fully kitted out for
school is between £140-£160 per child. The Institute of Fiscal Studies reckons that Government spending on primary schools is around around £5000 per pupil per year,
with a total spend on education in the UK amounting to 4.2% of our national income.
We recognise education as a vital and necessary investment. But might you be willing to invest in helping people learn about the Good News of Jesus too? If your children have grown up, perhaps you could invest a small amount in mission instead. A regular donation to Home Mission of only £5 a month can make a real difference to local churches in NWBA and help us begin new outreach initiatives. If you can spare a fiver a month can we count you in?
