Just asking, mind. I was under the impression (but may well be wrong) that many christian churches ask their followers for a percentage of their income?

I think some brances of the faith ask for a cut of income (Opus Dei) but I think the more traditonal ones just ask for a bit now and then with collection trays or fundrasiers for charity/community projects.
Actually Canterbury Cathedral is doing that since they need quite a lot of money to repair the building and shockingly it is not maintained by the government

Be a shame to let such a great building decay regardless of faith.
