Annual Donation
Church Membership donations are based on an increment depending on their size and income. The current minimum recommended donations are:

Under 100 attendees £ 100
100 to 149 attendees £ 150
150 to 199 attendees £ 200
200 to 299 attendees £ 300
300 to 399 attendees £ 400
400 to 500 attendees £ 500
Over 500 attendees £ 600

We encourage members to go beyond this minimum contribution and look at ways to increase their support on an ongoing basis. Currently, membership contributes less than 25 per cent of the overall running cost. Your support will enable us to continue the ongoing development of ACEA and give us the opportunity to expand the services we provide.

Paying by Standing Order makes your contribution go much further as it reduces our administrative cost of sending out numerous reminders. In addition it enables your church to spread its cost over the period instead of paying a lump some.
