Let us pay: church targets millennials with contactless collection plates
Vicars will use contactless card machines for collections at weddings and funerals as the Church of England tries to reverse its first drop in donations for half a century.
The amount of money given by direct debit or standing order to the church’s 12,600 parishes, their largest source of income, has fallen for the first time since records began in 1964.
The General Synod, which is meeting in York, heard that the average age of an Anglican worshipper was 12 years higher than the average age of the wider population. As older parishioners die, their direct debits die with them.
