Parish CAFOD group members Kate and Hannah attended a Mass of Thanksgiving for the work of CAFOD at St. Peter-in-Chains, Doncaster, this week. They learned about the vital work CAFOD are doing in Bangladesh, where there are frequent floods and cyclones. CAFOD are supporting families by providing them with the skills and tools they need to protect their crops and fight the climate crisis.
Bangladesh is the focus of this year's Lent Appeal, which we'll be giving more details of in the coming weeks.
Big Lent Walk update: Viv has completed her Big Lent Walk! She walked an incredible 532.8km during Lent and has raised an amazing £685 for CAFOD. This money will make a huge difference to families facing poverty and the effects of the climate crisis. Thank you very much to everyone for your generous donations and support.
