Just kidding! ONE NIGHT for Religious Freedom was a
wonderful event—thanks again to all who took part; find out more about ONE NIGHT on our website: here.
AND there’s more going on at ACN NW!
Recently I have visited several schools to give presentations about ACN
or to receive prayers, messages of support and donations from schools taking
part in Prayers from our Hearts, the ACN initiative for primary schools in the
NW and Scotland. Thank you to all who have taken part or are considering
participating. All primary schools in the region are welcome, so please do get
in touch if you’d like to learn more about this exciting offering.
Quite a few new ACN NW Parish Representatives have also come on board recently--this is fabulous as Parish Reps provide so much help to ACN. Being an ACN Parish Rep needn't take up too much of your time, but it really is crucial to us as it keeps members of your parish aware of the issues surrounding the Persecuted Church in between the Appeals given by our Area Secretaries. If you are interested in becoming a Parish Rep, please speak to your parish priest and ask him to get in touch with the NW Office. Thanks!
The REALLY big news is that
the new NW Office (just over one year old now!) has had so much support from
the clergy, parishes, schools and benefactors throughout the region that the decision has been taken to rent new
larger office space and to bring in a new member of staff to work with me. Hurray! Thank
you to all who have sponsored events, made donations, offered to become ACN Parish
Representatives, hosted appeals and so much more. I and the whole ACN NW Team
want you all to know that we are extremely grateful for your support and that
we shall continue working as hard as we can to offer you any information, help
or support that you may need.
Just wait and see what we have planned for later this year…
Hope to see you at the Manchester event in June!
Thanks for reading.
