“Contactless Giving”
Today, we hear a lot about the Cashless Society, and many people do most of their spending using either a contactless card or their mobile phone. To help those who seldom use cash but wish to support All Saints’ financially, we have installed a contactless facility. It is placed near the main door and we would love to receive your donation to God’s work at All Saints’, either as you enter or as you leave. Any gifts given this way are completely anonymous. The only information we receive as a church is the amount given and the date. Thank you Andrew
CHRISTIAN AID WEEK 14th- 21st May 2023
The focus this year is on the African country of Malawi. Families in Malawi are paying the price of the global crisis. Food, fuel, fertiliser and school fees have doubled in price in the last 12 months. Hard working farmers are seeing their harvests fail as the climate crisis brings increasingly erratic weather.
Christian Aid is celebrating how their partners in Malawi are helping farmers transform their livelihoods with pigeon peas – a drought-resistant, soil-revitalising, high-protein, low-cost, delicious crop. We know them as yellow split peas. In Malawi they are used to make bread.
Christian Aid is committed to giving everyone the chance to live a full life, free from poverty. We are hoping that, with your help, the lives of more people will be transformed. At the end of each service on Sunday 14th May you will be given a few Christian Aid envelopes We hope you will be able to use these to ask friends and family to support this life-giving important work. The following Sunday the envelopes can be put on the collection plate. Working together in this small way, we can make a real difference.
