UPDATE JUNE 2016: During Christian Aid Week, a total of £1,949.48 was raised in our parishes, in addition to the £750 raised by Morag's and Frank's Forth Bridge Crossing. Thank you very much to everyone who contributed to generously!

From 15-21 May, it's Christian Aid Week again. 

Two of our elders, Morag and Frank, recently participated in the Forth Road Bridge Crossing, to raise money for Christian Aid. There'll also be envelopes through your door, and collection tins at our church doors, with which you can support the work of Christian Aid.

In Edinburgh, both St Andrew's and St George's West Church in George Street, and Morningside United Church at Holy Corner hold great booksales during the week - so pop in if you're close-by, and find out about these and other events here.

To find out more about the vital work, and about how the funds are used, visit the Christian Aid website.
