What is Common Fund?Common Fund is money given by congregations in every parish in the Diocese of London. It is collected from rich and poor parishes, to provide and support clergy, and to further our work in every parish, across London. That is why our contributions are called the “Common Fund”; they are made by everyone, for everyone. Generous giving by congregations enables the Diocese to respond to the London Challenge; to maintain ministry and enable mission in all parts of the Diocese of London. Why should we pay?We should contribute to Common Fund
The Church of England receives no money from the state for mission or ministry. |
