Self Denial Appeal Over the past few years, we have seen incredible generosity from our Parramatta Corps community as we have given to support vulnerable communities overseas through the Self Denial Appeal. We want to encourage you, this weekend, to reflect on this year's theme:
‘A Gift from the Heart’. This theme has been selected so we can explore generous, personal offerings of all shapes and sizes, given for the glory of God.
We ask that you prayerfully consider your contribution to the appeal this year. We have set the bold goal for Parramatta Corps of $55,000, and we believe that we can get there!
This Sunday (26 March) during our 9:30am and 11am services, there will be opportunity to bring your gifts. Hopefully, you have already received a giving envelope from us, but if not, there will be plenty available in the foyer before church on Sunday.
Gifts can be given via cash, cheque, card or by giving your bank account details. There is also the option to give online through
www.selfdenial.info - if you give online in this way, please ensure you select 'Parramatta' from the Corps/Centre tab. If you are able to let us know via envelope or email if you have given in this way, that would help us greatly. All receipts will be issued by Territorial Headquarters and sent to you directly once the appeal has concluded.
Our children will also be participating in a special altar service when they go out to Kids Church and Mini God Squad this week. Parents, we ask that you prompt your children to bring along their money boxes this Sunday.
