Become a Friend of All Saints Church Horsford

Help preserve this 900 year old treasure in the village of Horsford for current and future generations to appreciate and use.
All Saints Church, the oldest building in Horsford, has been a steadfast presence in the village for centuries, holding significant value in our local heritage and history. The church plays a crucial role as a place for prayer, worship, and life events such as Christenings, Weddings, and Funerals. Beyond its physical presence, the church also holds immense historical and local significance. With a history that dates back generations, All Saints Church stands as a testament to those who came before us and to those who will follow. It welcomes visitors daily, upholding a tradition of serving the local community. The churchyard is a diverse and open greenspace for all to enjoy, featuring bug-hotels, wildflowers, and a small bat roost under the thatched roof void.	The Friends of All Saints Church contribute to maintaining this 900-year-old listed building and the grounds; the responsibility of covering the church running costs falls to the churchgoers. Donations from the Friends are dedicated solely to enhancing and preserving the building and grounds, ensuring it remains well-maintained, dry, warm, and an ecological greenspace for all to appreciate and use. Friends of All Saints Church will receive a Welcome Card and Bookmark on joining the scheme.

Supporting the All Saints Church thatched roof fundraising project is simple.

• Giving £21 would sponsor a bundle of reed thatch.
• Giving £25 would help towards the thatching work
• Giving £50 would help towards getting the thatch out of storage and onto the church roof!

How you can make a lasting gift to your Parish

Many people give regularly to the life and work of the three parishes for Horsford, Felthorpe and Hevingham. 

We are stewards of everything we own, not just our income, and gifts in wills are a natural part of that giving. They are a valuable and lasting way to invigorate the life of the three Parish churches and transform their futures.

A gift in your will can be an expression of your gratitude and thanksgiving towards God, and can help keep your local church alive, and transform its future. The three Church Council's for Horsford, Felthorpe and Hevingham have written a Legacy Policy confirming that they will use your gift, however large or small, to make a real difference to the church to which you leave your gift.

The policy of the three Church Council's is to use gifts in wills to help fund significant development projects in the Parish. Since needs change over the years, we encourage church members to leave a gift in thier will for the general purposes of the parish, rather than for a restricted purpose. The Rector or Churchwardens will discuss with executors the most appropriate use of the gift in the light of current projects and the donor’s known areas of interest in the church (e.g. children and youth, music, buildings).

Free online will writing service launched

The Church of England has partnered with Farewill, the UK’s favourite will writer, to offer a free online will writing service. Making a will and keeping it updated is an important part of Christian Stewardship and with Farewill individuals can do it from the comfort of their home, for free and in less than 30 minutes.
