Gift to Kagera

We are please to announce that the Bansfield Benefice has donated over £1100 to Kagera. All Saints' Wickhambrook donated £1000 and the rest of the money came from a retiring collection after the Benefice Palm Sunday service at All Saints' Wickhambrook.

Our diocese has a link with Kagera in north-west Tanzania, one of the poorest areas in Africa, which is struggling with increasing temperatures and water shortages. The wonderful news is that the Church of England has chosen Kagera as one of the three areas it will be supporting in its newly launched Climate Justice Fund, in partnership with Tearfund.
