If you would like to donate, please add your name to the calendar in the hall and leave the money in the envelope in the hall or hand it to Helen Paterson.

Christian Aid is responding to the east Africa food crisis and has launched an emergency appeal to help people affected across the region. An initial £240,000 has been released for immediate response and work will be scaled up as the crisis intensifies across the region.
Drought and displacement combined with rising food prices has left the east and the horn of Africa, especially Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia, in need of urgent humanitarian support. This is the worst food security crisis in the world today and some parts of the region are experiencing the driest conditions in 60 years.
Please give now to help us reach those most in need. Donations can be placed in the Christian Aid well in the church vestibule.
