"The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters"
- Psalm 24:1 (NIV)
How We Participate in Giving
Tithes & Offerings
The principle of "first fruits" is explained throughout the Bible. God asks that we return 10% of all our increase to Him, thereby revealing a heart of trust in God as our provider and sustainer. Proverbs 3:9 says, "Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops." In today's 21st-century context, this translates to tithing 10% of our income to the local church. This plays a vital role in sustaining the Church's day-to-day operations and essential aspects such as running and staffing costs, venue maintenance, administrative duties, and governance.
Hillsong Foundation UK
The Hillsong Foundation UK's purpose is to enable and finance the Church's mission. Our aim is to establish the Church in cities across the nation, offering a "Welcoming Home" for everyone to encounter God while actively embodying the teachings of Jesus, both locally and globally. We achieve this through our National Initiative, Local Initiatives, and Social Impact Initiatives.
Heart for the House
Heart for the House is an annual offering that goes beyond our regular giving. It provides an opportunity to make sacrificial contributions to the various initiatives of the Hillsong Foundation UK, directly impacting the lives of people within our church community and beyond and leaving a lasting legacy for future generations.
The Impact of Your Giving
Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our community, our Liverpool location has become a beacon of hope, open seven days a week. We’ve established a vibrant community grocer, ensuring that families have access to fresh produce and essential goods. This initiative not only alleviates food insecurity but also fosters a profound sense of togetherness. Additionally, we host a weekly mom and tots’ group, providing support and friendship to mothers while their children enjoy playing and socialising. Moreover, our doors are open for spiritual growth through weekly Alpha gatherings, creating a space for personal transformation and a deeper understanding of faith.

Gift Aid
Gift Aid is a valuable initiative of the UK Government, allowing charities to receive an additional 25p for every £1 donated by UK taxpayers. This boost is achieved by reclaiming the basic rate of tax already paid on your donation. When you make a Gift Aid Declaration, the total value of your donation can increase, and it won’t incur any extra cost to you.

When you make a donation online or via our Giving App, we’ll guide you through the process of registering and claiming Gift Aid. For those who prefer giving through a standing order or bank transfer, we have provided an online declaration form, which can be accessed below.
