I visited Our Lady & St Christopher's to say thank you for their support & tell them about Waré & her community in S Ethiopia.

Great to speak to parishioners after mass about #FamilyFastDay & CAFOD's work. Thanks to Can Michael, Fr Humphrey & the parish for the warm welcome.

Yesterday, I joined parishioners of St Theresa and St Columba, Chester at their afternoon tea fundraiser, held in the beautiful peace garden at St Theresa's to raise funds for our Gaza Crisis appeal.

Thank you for your generosity and for the delicious tea and scones!

The situation in Gaza remains unimaginably difficult for our partners and communities.

But thanks to your recent donations, they are providing rice and bread to 2,000 people. This is just one of the life-saving interventions you’ve made possible.
