Lent Appeal 2011: On behalf of asylum seekers in St Chad's Parish

We don't identify easily with Asylum Seekers: there is a lot of negative press about them. Yet we are called to be positive and generous towards outsiders in our community.

We were therefore raising money throughout Lent for St Monica's Housing, to support the Asylum Seekers in the parish. We had to wait till Easter Day to get the news that we'd reached our target. After a shaky start, a total of £1,047.67 was raised to be sent to support this work, to which they will be able to add around £150 in Gift Aid.

Thank you everyone who contributed towards this important work.
