The Bishop’s Lent Appeal is raising money to help clergy children in Papua New Guinea to complete their education at the Martyrs Memorial School, just outside Popondetta. To raise enough money to send 1 clergy child to Martyrs Memorial School for 1 year. Tuition in schools in PNG is free, but as this school is a boarding school, there are fees to pay each year. Around £400 per pupil per year. Clergy families in PNG receive no stipend and are reliant on their congregations to support them with gifts of food and money. This money will help to provide and complete the education for 1 child. Children who are educated at the school go on into medicine, governance and teaching for example.
If you are new…. It is great to see you today. If you are able to, please speak to a member of the ministry team. We look forward to getting to know you!
St Ed’s needs…a new Treasurer and a Safeguarding officer. Please pray that the Lord will call people for these roles. (could it be you?) Further details from the Churchwardens.
