We are a generous church.
We’re so thankful for the generosity of those who give to Falkirk Vineyard, providing us with the resources to carry out our ministry and work in our community, demonstrating God’s love inside and outside this church in practical ways.
Having the finances available means we can continue to bless the community generously and fund the many projects, events and courses we run; support our mission partners; as well as the normal day-to-day running of the church.

Our principals of giving.
Under Old Testament law, 10% of a person’s income was to be given as a “tithe”. Now under grace, we believe that we are free from the law, and we are encouraged to use the 10% as a guideline or starting point for giving to the local church, with any other offerings beyond that. This is an act of worship and thankfulness to God which acknowledges that He is our provider.
As with any other area of involvement this is entirely up to the individual.
We encourage each person to “give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
(2 Corinthians 9:7).

2. Weekly offering.
You can give via cash or cheque during our Sunday service. If you'd like to let us know who the gift is from or if you are a UK tax payer you can pick up a giving envelope at our info point during our service. When you fill these in, they will give us permission to claim Gift Aid when possible. We receive the offering each week as part of our worship.
3. Storehouse.
Falkirk Vineyard is a church in the community, serving the community, changing one life at a time. One way we do this is through our Storehouse ministry which makes a huge practical difference in people's lives. So, another way you can be generous is to give non-perishable food and toiletries to our Storehouse which provides food and necessities to people locally who need help.
We have a collection point in the main hall during our services.
