Giving
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:7
Giving financially, regularly and sacrificially to St Oswald’s allows us to sustain our life together as a community, to further our ministries and to give to those most in need and vulnerable.
If you consider yourself part of The St Oswald’s family, we encourage you to contribute financially.
We are not asking for your money but we are inviting you into an opportunity to be part of the journey of faith.
Partnering with St Oswald’s to build a community of faith and love as we receive from God in word and sacrament and see His kingdom here amongst us.
