ON FRIDAY 7th JUNE
in collaboration with our neighbours South Ascot CofE Parish
and others around

a special ecumenical gathering
in support of the nationwide campaign aimed at the G8



 

     
 

IF you’re not among the tens of thousands of people and 100+ organisations in London on Saturday 8 June, you’ll perhaps appreciate this alternative.  It’s so you won’t miss out showing solidarity with the historic Food Enough For Everyone IF Campaign - aimed at the leaders of the G8 meeting in the UK for the first time since 2005.

It’s an appropriate collaboration between good neighbours - Anglican and Catholic churches in the South Ascot area.  But this ecumenical gathering is meant to be of service to anyone across East Berkshire - in any church, school, group, family or otherwise - who hasn’t anything IF arranged but wants to take part.  All are welcome to join in this informal and quite historic event.

Using a mix of resources, the IF service has been developed to provide insights, deepen understanding, share personal experience, and offer a time of prayer for all involved in making hunger history.  And to count our blessings. 

NB If you think you're likely to attend, it will help to e-mail this to hughgibbons@just1.org.uk


The IF Campaign is a coalition of over 200 UK NGOs, charities, faith groups, unions and other organisations - including Just1.
