UPDATE JUNE 2016: During Christian Aid Week, a total of £1,949.48 was raised in our parishes. Thank you very much to everyone who contributed to generously!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------From 15-21 May, it's Christian Aid Week again. You might receive an envelope through your door, and there will be a collection tin at our church door, 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.
