Who we support

We organise collections throughout the year for other charities like Christian Aid, Royal British Legion, Women’s Refuge and DEC appeals.

When finances allow we support mission projects like the following:

1.   Church Mission Society

The Church Mission Society was founded in 1799 by a group of activist evangelical Christians committed to three great enterprises: abolition of the slave trade, social reform at home and world evangelisation.
Throughout the many stages of its history, which includes founding about two-thirds of the churches in today’s Anglican Communion, CMS has constantly adapted its mission.
Fast-forwarding to the present, we’ve seen the growth of CMS Africa and Asia CMS and we soon hope to bring about a Latin American expression of CMS.
Local voices. Local vision. Local mission. All learning from each other and working together across the world.

As a parish we are supporting:

2.   Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF)

MAF uses planes to transform the lives of the world’s most isolated people in need. In today’s ‘connected world’, the irony is that never have so many people been so isolated.
Flying onto desert and jungle airstrips, lakes and rivers, tracks and roads, MAF’s light aircraft and their mission pilots go the extra miles to provide a lifeline.
Working in partnership with hundreds of other Christian and relief organisations MAF
enables practical help, physical healing, and spiritual hope to be delivered to many of the most remote and inaccessible communities on the planet.

For 70 years, MAF has been flying for life

4.   Church Urban Fund

As the Church of England’s response to poverty, the Church Urban Fund’s aim is to inform, inspire, resource and support churches as they work to tackle poverty and build community.

They take what Jesus says about loving God and loving our neighbours seriously.

They are passionate about bringing God’s love, hope and justice to the poorest and most marginalised people in England, empowering them to transform their lives.

And they believe the local church is uniquely placed to bring lasting change to its community.
