Christian Aid Week

7/5/2019

 
Picture
Christian Aid Week 2019 takes place from 12 to 18 May. As every year, we are happy to support this great charity who work in more than 70 countries around the world. Find out more about Christian Aid and Christian Aid Week here.
For more than ten years, Morag and Frank, two of our elders, have participated in the Forth Road Bridge Crossing for Christian Aid Week, with the support of the congregation, and are taking part again this year on Saturday, 11 May. If you would like to sponsor them, please get in touch. There are also lots of other events around Christian Aid Week, such as the Booksale in St Andrew's and St George's West Church in Edinburgh, which has raised more than £2m since its beginnings. You can also donate to the work of Christian Aid in our churches and the Session Rooms, where there are collection tins, or directly online on their website.  
This year's emphasis of Christian Aid Week is on maternal health in Sierra Leone, where ten women die giving birth every day. Here's a video showing the work supported by Christian Aid:
