Rwanda Church Emergency Help - support still needed!

 

Most church buildings in our partners dioceses remain closed until they meet the building regulations introduced in 2018. Work has been done and some parishes are waiting for an inspection to allow them to re-open. However, many rural parishes are struggling with both the amount of work required and the costs.

The consequences are serious. No services means no offerings, so no income for pastors or for the dioceses. Our 'Rwanda 924' appeal has made more than £4600 (8,000,000 RWF) available to help meet the practical needs of pastors in our two partner dioceses. As you can imagine, this has made a huge difference to their lives over the last four months.

So far, 33 pastors and their families have been helped with up to four monthly donations to cover their financial needs. This has literally saved them from poverty. So to all who have given - THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Our Emergency Help Fund remains open, so if you want to contribute please click the Donate button on the right, select the method of payment, tick the Emergency Help Fund and indicate the amount being given or pledged. Then proceed as required.
