Membership of The Friends is open to all. The Friends aim to provide a link between people who have an affection for St Paul's, whether current or former members of the congregation, local people, or visitors from further afield.

Keeping in touch

The Friends promote concerts and other events, and there is an annual meeting to which all members are invited. The wider the membership, the more truly can The Friends fulfil their aims.

How to join

For more information on The Friends please see their leaflet which also has membership application form. Cut it out, and either send it to the Membership Secretary at the church address or email friends@stpaulschurchbedford.org.uk.

It helps greatly if you pay by Standing Order as this reduces the administrative costs as well as making it easier for you. If you pay income tax, we would be very grateful if you would sign the Gift Aid declaration overleaf. This enables us to reclaim the basic rate of income tax for every £1 you give.
