If you pop to spend a penny at our Church in the Market Place - you will see an unusual photo in the toilet. To support the aims of our Eco Church Team we have twinned our toilet with a latrine in Nepal. You will see the photo of the toilet in our loo! In all seriousness, the principle of toilet twinning is you choose a toilet you use and twin it with one given to a community who are in need of safe places to go to the toilet. The money we have raised not only funds a toilet, but also helps support community education and sanitation programmes.
A massive well done to Cindy - a regular member of the St Edward's congregation who received her Medallist of the British Empire Award - BEM. Cindy received this for her services to people from ethic minority backgrounds in East London. Well done Cindy and many congratulations - we are so proud of you here at St Edward's, and your well deserved award.
Yellow weather warnings will not stop us! A massive thank you to everyone who came along to our Bazaar on Saturday and enjoyed, some fabulous cake, and a small tipple of mulled wine. Thank you to our helpers, and the Romford Community who came and donated some money. We raised just short of £2000. Amazing!
