Running and Ringing for Vernet bells and the Hollybank Trust

Jeffrey Ladd is raising money for The Diocese in Europe (Church of England)
In memory of Catherine Ladd
Donations cannot currently be made to this page
We are a Mission-shaped diocese - a network of Christian communities and congregations serving Anglicans and other English-speaking Christians across an enormous geographical area.We minister in a myriad of situations, in most of which the Church of England has scarcely been heard of, questions of establishment scarcely arise, civic links may take a very different form, and de­nomi­na­tional identity is often much less important than the language of worship. English churches and congregations have been established on the Continent since before the Reformation. The number of these grew to such an extent that in 1633 congregations of the Church of England in all foreign countries were placed under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of London. Anglican dioceses and then provinces were later formed in all parts of the world outside the United Kingdom.The Diocese in Europe is made up of churches and congregations spread across forty-two countries on three continents, and covering one sixth of the earth’s land surface. And yet, this is a Diocese of the Church of England.

Story

Fundraising for the installation of our 10 bells at St George's, Vernet-les-Bains is now complete. The bells were installed and rung for the first time in April 2019. The final total raised for the Runners' Bell was £3600. A cheque for half that amount, £1800, has been sent to the Hollybank Trust. Many thanks indeed to all those who ran and rang and those who supported with generous donations. Any further donations left on this page will be passed on in full to Hollybank. If you'd still like to make a gift to the bells, please use our main JustGiving page..
