We are Pilgrims on a Journey
We are Brothers on the Road
We are here to HELP each other
Walk the Mile and bear the Load (Gillard)
For the next two years (from June 2007) we are to support the following three organisations.
Firstly: WATER AID - is an international charity. They work to
over-come poverty by enabling the world's poorest to gain access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene education. The charity has 17 programmes running in Africa, Asia and the Pacific region of the world. They work with local communities and use low-cost techknowledgies to deliver lasting solutions to water problems. See www.wateraid.org
Secondly: HESHIMA - helps children in the town of Kisumu in Kenya.
They give advice, support and information to new parents to plan for their future. It provides a play and activity centre where children can have fun whilst learning new skills, and also promote their culture in Drama, dance and music. See www.heshima.org.uk
NONE of the donations are used for administration.
And thirdly: USPG DIOCESE IN PERU - this is an Anglican based mission project. Their outreach work includes soup kitchens, medical campaigns and prison ministry. The Diocese projects include teaching women to raise ducks and grow vegetables so that the family diet will be much improved, making shoes to provide footwear for family and friends, and Hydroponics (growing plants in water), therefore making the most of small areas, and an economical way of using water.

WHERE THERE'S HOPE, THERE'S HAPPINESS!
When you have given some thought to the plight of the people being helped
by the three organisations of our MISSION PROJECT, please decide how you could help them. Some of us collect our small change that becomes too heavy in our pockets to be bothered with. Put it in our own collection box that is outside the church at every Service. If you are too far away to visit perhaps you might like to send your donation to us at "The Anglican Chaplaincy, P O Box 617, Mojacar, Almeria 04638, Spain".
We will ensure that all donations are shared equally betwen the three organisations, or any one of them if so specified. THANK YOU ..............
Ann Marshall - Mission Project Organiser
We also save used postage stamps - any type - any country. These are passed on to the "The Oxford Association for the BLIND" who sort and sell them on. You may post them please to the above address, c/o J H Salmons, or deposit them in the collecting box in church.
Please don't throw them away - put them to good use.
