Bishop's Harvest Appeal 2024
Dear Friends,
I am always so grateful for the wonderful generosity which is shown by churches across Cumbria towards our annual Bishop’s Harvest Appeal.
Over the last four years, nearly £85,000 has been raised for our partner projects with Christian Aid and the Mothers’ Union in Israel, Palestine and the Democratic Republic of Congo. This work has made a real difference in people’s lives.
This year sees the start of a new cycle of fundraising, in support of Christian Aid’s work in Burkina Faso and that of the Church Mission Society in Northern Argentina – one of our link dioceses. Two local groups – Cumbria Development Education Centre and Carlisle One World Centre – will also benefit.
I’m excited to see how this missional work will play out over the next three years as we again commit to the support of our brothers and sisters in Christ in the wider communion.
I pray that lives will again be transformed through these partnerships and that levels of giving will continue to grow.
The Rt Rev Rob Saner-Haigh, Acting Bishop of Carlisle
