There are many reasons to give but here’s a few:

• We give because everything we own is God’s, and it’s a privilege to give back to him (1 Chronicles 29:14).
• We give because we’ve so richly received from God, including his son Jesus Christ (2 Cor 8:9).  We’re exhorted to be generous like him.
• We give as a form of worship to God (Phil 4:18).  God graciously accepts our giving as a ‘fragrant sacrifice’ when it’s given in the spirit of thanksgiving.
• We give to further God’s Kingdom (Matt 6:19-21).  This is the commission Jesus gave to the church, and why not store our treasure in heaven?

There are two ways to give regularly:

1) By Standing Order (Monthly Bank Transfer)
By this method your bank will transfer your monthly giving to the church account.  Please check the details below to set up your regular giving.  Once you have set it up, please let us know by emailing the Church Administrator (stchurch@shatinchurch.org.hk), so that we can keep track accounting and tax purposes.

2) By Monthly Numbered Envelopes
Alternatively, we can provide you with an envelope for each month’s tithes and offerings.  These envelopes are numbered and your number is only known to the Treasurer who oversees the accounting and issues tax receipts.*  Alternatively your giving can be put in the monthly envelopes and sent to the Church Office.  Cheques should be written to “Shatin Anglican Church”.  Please contact the Church Administrator if you’d like to request your giving envelopes.

Cash or Cheque

Please make cheques payable to ‘Shatin Anglican Church’, and place them in the offertory bags each week. You could also send them to the church office in Shek Mun.

Bank Transfer

The transfer should be made to:

Name: ST ANDREW’S CHURCH-SHATIN ANGLICAN CHURCH

Bank: HSBC (004) 018-057919-008

Whether it’s a one-off giving or regular, please let the office know that you have given for tax/accounting purposes.

An email receipt will be issued which can be used for tax deduction purpose.  (N.B., Depending on the amount of money given online, there is a fee of 2.9% to 3.9% for all Hong Kong giving and 3.4% to 4.4% for all overseas giving)
