Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page.

On seeing some of the horrific images from Haiti this week following the earthquake I decided I wanted to try to do something about it. I was talking to someone at church yesterday about it, and I thought that following on from my 365 Songs project I could record some hymns and inspirational songs and make the CD available at church for a donation. Given that I'm publishing most of my recordings online, I figured it would make sense to make an online version of the CD too. I've chosen to do this using JustGiving.com and to donate the money to the Haiti disaster appeal through Save the Children.

So, if you go ahead and make a donation here, you'll receive the link to download the album. The songs included are:

 

01. From a distance

02. On eagles' wings

03. Oh, let all who thirst

04. Wind beneath my wings

05. Pescador de hombres

06. Lord, you are more precious than silver

07. You raise me up

08. Kyrie - Misa Campesina

09. Holy Spirit came to me

10. One bread, one body

11. Come back to me (Hosea)

12. Make me a channel of your peace

13. Be not afraid

14. I watch the sunrise

15. Be still for the presence of the Lord

16. The prayer


While the suggested donation at church is £4 for the CD, please just give whatever you feel you can.

One thing: since you're theoretically receiving something in return for your donation, HMRC unfortunately doesn't allow GiftAid to be claimed on your donation. So, to avoid any problems, please tick the box "I am NOT a UK tax payer" on the donation screen. This means that Gift Aid won't be taken on your donation, and it will mean that there are no problems with HMRC.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to Save the Children.

Thanks in advance, and I hope you enjoy the songs!
