The parishioners of St John’s, Stoneyford, and Gartree recently held a lunch to raise funds for Christian Aid Ireland’s work to help people living in poverty and crisis.

Prior to the Lunch, Christian Aid Ireland’s Church Fundraising Project Officer Suzanne Simpson spoke at both churches, sharing the story of the charity’s work in Guatemala which is the focus of this year’s Christian Aid Week appeal.

Stoneyford and Gartree’s Christian Aid representative Norma Parker was assisted by other parishioners who gave their time freely to prepare and serve the lunch.

Christian Aid Ireland thanked everyone who came along and donated so generously and expressed special thanks to the Rev John Farr who has supported its work for many years.
