'We believe in life before death'It's the strapline of registered UK charity Christian Aid. 11th-17th May 2008 is Christian Aid Week in the UK and the people of Wythenshawe have been generous in their efforts so far. Through a civic centre bucket collection a couple of days ago a small team of volunteers raised over £636 from the general public in a day! Wonderful! It is much needed at this time with spiraling violence in Zimbabwe and aid supplies needed for Burma after the devastating cyclone last week.
Thankyou all for your Spirit of Life this Pentecost. Goodness is stronger than evil, love is stronger than hate. It is clear that the people of Wythenshawe believe in life before death for themselves and for the peoples of the world and that is a great spirit of solidarity and generosity at work amongst us; the Holy Spirit who is God.
