This is the amount of money that was given in our Christmas Offerings.

These gifts will be divided between the work of the following three ministries:  Restore, The Birmingham City Mission and Hadath Baptist Church in Beirut – details below.

St John’s has a tradition of giving away freewill and cash offerings at all our Christmas Service.

Thank you to all those who gave.
