Revd Margaret writes "To let you know both our sets of taps have been twinned; framed certificates on the way! Thank you for your donations in lieu of sending Christmas cards to each other". The churches taps in All Saints Church Horsford, were twinned via TearFund's 'Tap Twinning' programme, one with a tap in Afghanistan and another to a tap in Kenya. Tearfund reports that one in three people lack access to safe drinking water. 144 million still have to get all their water from rivers or lakes. Your donation is helping to provide poorer communities with access to safe, clean water. Thank you!
