We learnt about Jesus, King of Kings and how the Three Wise Men brought Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. We then got to smell real Myrrh (reminded me of mince pies) and saw frankincense being used in an incense burner (Thank you Sacred Heart Church Wadhurst for lending us yours). Sadly the Bank of England would not lend us any Gold Bars!We ended the service asking ourselves “What gift do we bring, to Jesus the King?”
They have managed to repair the walls and build the framework of the roof, but as yet have no funds to buy the roofing sheets. £2,000 is needed.If you would like to contribute to this donations are being received at Carillon Cottage:Cash can be given in an envelope marked 'Burundi Link (for roofing)'Cheques payable to 'Burundi Link' but with a note saying it's for the roofing appealBACS payments to the Burundi Link Account, sort code 60-22-15, account 35050306, payment reference 'roofing'.It would be a huge blessing if we could help this very poor parish start the new year with the prospect of having their church back in use.
Thank you to everyone who, who has worked so hard to help us achieve it.https://ecochurch.arocha.org.uk/how-eco-church-works/
