Hermannsburg Congregation

Hermannsburg Congregation Welcome to the official page of Peter-Paul Lutheran Congregation in Hermannsburg, South Africa!

Join our vibrant community as we gather in faith, fellowship, and service. Stay updated on our worship services, events, and outreach initiatives. Voluntary Giving: every organisation needs finances to be able to operate, and our congregation is no different. Every member is expected to contribute financially to the running of the congregation, based on his or her own self-evaluation. There is no

prescribed amount expected, but rather what each member can afford according to their means. A detailed budget is presented at the AGM for members’ approval and the finances are audited on an annual basis. The main expenses are the congregation’s contribution to the head office of the NELCSA. This contribution is mainly to cover the pastor's salary, as the pastor is not paid directly by the congregation, but rather through the NELCSA to which it is directly affiliated. The contribution also goes towards the day-to-day running of the congregation - paying the utility bills, the cleaning staff, vehicle and admin costs. As a guideline, voluntary contributions would be anywhere between 1% and 10%
of one’s monthly income, based on self-evaluation and prayerful consideration. Sunday Collections: every Sunday, a collection is taken up during the service, which is usually not for the benefit of the congregation, but rather for other beneficiaries such as old-age homes and outreach & mission projects of the church. In effect, this means that Sunday collections do not go towards the running costs of the congregation. Fund-raising: To augment the income for the congregation’s running expenses, various fundraisers are held over the course of the year.
