Christian Aid - Thank You

We would like to say a big thank you to everybody who helped with the Christian Aid collecting and counting this year, particularly Sally‑Ann‑Ward the treasurer who sorts the counting and Gift Aid.

Below is the money raised in each village


  The Altons co-ordinator/collectors needed
  Beechingstoke£133
  Easton Royal£149
  Huish £13
  Manningfordsco-ordinator/collectors needed
  Milton Lilbourne £285
  North Newnton£208
  Oare£39
  Pewsey£2553
  Stanton St Bernard£60
  Wilcotco-ordinator/collectors needed
  Woodborough£175
  Wootton Rivers£219
  Total£3833

From the total collected there was about £1750 Gift Aided which will raise about another £500 to help those in need - it really does make a difference!

Although Christian Aid has an emergency fund and does emergency fundraising to bring aid when there are natural disasters it also works with almost 650 different partner organisations in more than 50 countries, helping people regardless of race or religion, empowering some of the world’s poorest communities to improve their lives. For example, in Kenya money from Christian Aid went to a partner organisation which supported a community group to build sanitation blocks within their settlement - the type of settlement which was called a slum.

To all the people who contributed by giving money for Christian Aid, it is good to know that your support can change lives and keeps hope of a better future alive.

Thank you

Anne Mantle, David Thomas

GOOD NEWS!

We are trying to find potential Lay Pastoral Assistants and, so that anyone who thinks they might be LPA material or who is gently pushed that way by God, incumbents etc can come and find out a bit more about what an LPA is, what an LPA does, what the training consists of and how to formally become an LPA on 10 March 2010 at Burbage Church Hall, opposite All SaintsChurch at Burbage, from 7.30 for a couple of hours. There will be light refreshments provided. This is available to any folk in our 3 Deaneries as a minimum.

All LPA's will be subject to a CRB check.

This night is for the LPA's but there will be a need another time for the incumbents etc to be involved.

PCC Secretaries: Please do not forget that, if you have any potential LPA's their names need to go forwards to your PCC so that the LPA's are properly sponsored by their respective Parishes and incumbents.


If you need to know more please phone Sara Hughes on 01672 563728 or e-mail sara.hughes6@btinternet.com
