Operation Rachael: Help Our Church Bell Ring Again
- Rachael is the name of our bell at Christ the King Catholic Church, Chingford.
- Silent today for the first time in 30 years, our parish must raise £9,000 to fix her…
To help raise the £9,000 needed for extensive repairs, Nicola, the parish’s senior altar server, will be walking a full marathon on Saturday 5 September, following the Thames Path from Hampton Court to the Millennium Bridge.
Nicola has been training in the Alps and reports that it was a big success. “Four 5 hour hikes with plenty of climbing and at altitude. I know I am in good shape so bring it on”.
If you would like to support Nicola’s effort and help our church bell ring once more please consider making a donation.

Support the life and mission of our Parish
We remain grateful to those who have made donations, but the costs of the parish are more to run than the income it receives. Please prayerfully review your weekly contribution and commit to giving a regular amount each week or month direct from your bank account. You can set up a Standing Order yourself with online banking or contact us for a form for your bank. Stable and planned giving makes it possible for us to plan for the future and to be the church God calls us to be.
If you are a UK taxpayer, we can increase your donation by 25p for every £1 donated, by reclaiming the tax you have already paid on it from government under our Gift Aid Scheme; you can download a form to fill in or pick one up from the Church porch. It takes less than a minute to fill in. Even if you are not eligible to join the Gift Aid Scheme you can still set-up a Standing Order with your bank for regular giving. The new financial year starts on 6th April it is a good idea to starting thinking about joining the Scheme now in good time. You can download a form here
Contactless card donations can be made at weekends at the Church. You still have the option to Gift Aid your donation and you only need to register once. You will still need to do this if you are an existing member of the Scheme and have a unique Gift Aid number. If you have any questions please contact the Parish Office.
