Methodist Church Fund

The Methodist Church Fund exists to help resource the Methodist Church to respond to our calling: to worship God, to learn and care, and to serve and evangelise. The Fund primarily supports the work associated with the decisions of the Methodist Conference, from challenging poverty and injustice to supporting partnerships ecumenically and internationally.

Your generous giving to this fund will go towards one of our many services - support services, the learning network, the conference office, mission and advocacy, discipleship and other funds.

Gifts in wills are made generally to the Methodist Church and this gives us the flexibility to use that gift in the most appropriate way where the need is greatest.
