Christian Aid Week
12th – 18th May
Christian Aid is urging its supporters to “push back against poverty” this Christian Aid Week by bearing in mind the coming General Election
The charity says that “people hoping to represent us” in the next UK Parliament will soon be on our doorsteps, “vying for our vote”
Christian Aid says that these would-be MPs will: “be in listening mode, keen to hear what makes the voters in their community tick”. And so, urges the charity, Christians can use this opportunity to “show them that your church cares about poverty, and tell them that you expect them to act on poverty too, if they are elected”
This year the charity has launched the ‘70K Challenge for May’ encouraging its supporters to do a sponsored ‘Move 70km’ during May. Walk, run, cycle, however you move is up to you”. Details at: https://fundraise.christianaid.org.uk
