We’re so thankful for your continuing financial support towards the ministry of Ballyloughan. Many display a tremendous attitude of giving, reflecting the heart of a heavenly Father who is full of generosity. Here are ways in which you can give financially to the ministry of our church.

We have 3 different accounts in Ballyloughan: our general account into which freewill offerings are given.

General Account.  All money given to the General Account (also known as the Freewill offering) is used to meet ongoing ministry expenditures such as the running costs of the majority of our programmes, ministries, salaries and expenses.

Property Account. Our Property Account is used to meet the expenditures involved in the maintenance and development of the church’s property, including our Vision 50 plan to refurbish the main church building.

Missions.  Our Missions Account provides members of the church with an opportunity to give towards the various mission projects that we support outside of our own congregation, including Dublin Christian Mission, Liberia partnership, Koprivnica Baptist Church in Croatia, to name just a few, as well as the United Appeal for Mission which funds the centrally co-ordinated ministries of our denomination.

Ways to give…

1. Bring to a Service

You can give your offering at any of our services - but it’s ok if you come to a service without an offering, particularly if you’re new to Ballyloughan or if you give by standing order. Many of our members receive one of our envelope packs which enables them to spread their giving across our 3 accounts.
