Family Fast Day is on Friday 26 February 2021.

This Lent in lockdown, you and your parish can help transform lives!

           Abdella has to walk ten hours a day to find water to keep his family alive. By sharing Abdella’s story with your parish at livestream Masses, in the e-bulletin and via social media, you can raise life-changing funds.

 ‘If we walk each day of the remaining 30 days of Lent for just one mile at £1per mile that's ~ £30.  Doesn't have to be a mile. Up and down your garden or stairs at 20p per time x 5 times per day for the next 30 days ~ £30.  Whatever you can do, please make a big effort to raise some cash.  If you can't find the time or energy, then please don't let that stop you sending a donation. ’
