A Church of England diocesan giving guide reporting the national General Synod's own suggested giving target, 5% of post-tax income to the church and a similar amount to other charities, together reconstructing the traditional biblical tithe of a tenth, framed as personal and prayerful reflection rather than a fixed requirement.

Reliability Tier2
Tier 2: a Church of England diocesan stewardship page, read in full at its hosted address, reporting rather than itself constituting the national church's own guidance: "The Church of England General Synod has for some time now encouraged individual Christians to review our giving annually and to give a proportion of our income," with "the initial target suggested by General Synod" at "5% of post-tax income to and through the church and a similar amount to other charities." A diocesan secondary report of General Synod policy rather than the General Synod's own primary report. Citation
