Often we would come together for events to fundraise for Christian Aid Week. As we may not be able to do that, members and friends from the Church at Carrs Lane are committing, each in our own safe space, to walk for an hour a day throughout Christian Aid Week. At some point we'll post a total of how many hours we are aiming for / have achieved!
As we walk we hope to raise funds but also awareness of the work of Christian Aid...
The climate crisis is leaving people hungry, homeless and heartbroken. People like Rose are struggling to survive without a reliable source of water. From drought to flooding, climate chaos robs people of control over their lives. I often feel hungry, Rose says. Because of climate change, I worry a lot about food. I pray to God that the rainfall will become normal like it used to be. In recent years, the drought has been so bad that its caused a hunger crisis. Crops wither and die. Rivers run dry. People struggle to survive. The coronavirus pandemic has only made this lack of water more critical for Rose. Without water for handwashing, it is a struggle to stay safe from the virus. Please support my fundraising and help to provide reliable water source, for people like Rose. Your gift will help support Christian Aid's vital work with some of the poorest communities in the world.
Thank you!
