UNICEF Jar of Grace Appeal, 2017-18

The annual Jar of Grace appeal has been launched.

Jar of Grace label

Members of the congregation received a label to be affixed to a jar.  The idea is to make a small donation at every meal and, at Easter bring your jars to church where all the donations will be collated and sent on to UNICEF.

Filled jars should be brought back to church by a date to be advised later.

Tax-payers are also encouraged to complete the Giftaid form (included with the label) to make their donation worth 25% more at no extra cost to them.

The label includes the following prayer:

Almighty God,
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to protect those children around the world who are put at risk during tragic emergencies.
We pray for those children who are yet to be reached.  Help us to keep them safe as we strive to eliminate barriers in order to reach them.
Bless this donation, that it might be multiplied and help change the lives of children across the world.
In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord,
Amen
