Charity of the Month
Wendy Pritchard introduces "A new way to do Charitable Giving" here.
If you are unable to donate online, Cash Donations can be posted through the Rectory Letterbox (Please use and envelope and clearly mark it ) or left in the clearly marked basket at the back of Church after the Sunday Services.
Our Charity of the Month alternates each month between overseas and home charities. Charities have included The Samaritans, Water Aid, Rug Aid, Darlington's Women Refuge, World Vision and Emmaus. We have recently supported Playgrounds for Palestine - a charity which raises money to provide much needed play areas in Palestine. We are constantly reviewing the charities we support to ensure we assist as many as possible.
The charities for 2022 are below. On alternative months our Charity of the Month giving will go to the Anglican Mission Agency USPG (United Society Partners in the Gospel), in support of their work throughout the world. For further information on USPG please visit: www.uspg.org.uk
