How You Can Help
The church of St Lawrence and the church of the Ascension are living and working places which many visit each year - whether to worship at a regular service, to attend a special event, or to enjoy a private moment of peace. Our work extends beyond these walls out into the community in a number of ways, such as visiting schools, hospitals and care homes.
All of this costs the parish around £3000 per week. We receive no financial assistance from the Government and have to rely on the generosity of our supporters and our own fundraising endeavours to continue our important work.
Please read below to see how you can support us. If you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to fill in the Gift Aid section, if applicable, so that we can reclaim the tax you have paid.

You can ring 0333 002 1271 and say you would like to make a monthly gift to the parish of Abbots Langley and Bedmond, quoting the reference number 320632229, it can all be set up in under ten minutes or use the Parish Giving Scheme website (https://www.parishgivingscheme.org.uk/).
They can also alter the amount of existing regular gifts.
Only the Parish Giving Officer (Marcus Coultrup) will know what you give. Nobody else will have a clue .... but we will ALL be very grateful.
Many, many thanks to all who give with such generosity already. To those who don't, but could - please think, pray and act!
