With a donation of £10, all of which goes towards the upkeep of the church, the floodlights around its base can be sponsored for an occasion. St Mary's Church is also responsible for the running of the next-door charity shop, "The Mustard Seed". Welton War Memorial The war memorial in St Mary's churchyard was ceremoniously erected in 1923 to commemorate the men who died fighting in World War I. It was unveiled by Col Herbert Gordon on 26 May 1923 to a crowd of Weltoners, with prayers by the Rev T Naylor, followed by the dedication by the Venerable Archdeacon Blackie, and singing.
