COVID-19 ~ TANZANIA APPEAL (CLOSED)

Our initial aim was to raise enough money to buy an Oxygen Concentrator to help Tanzania cope with the Coronavirus pandemic. The cost of the concentrator is £1,650, we are pleased to announce the total raised was over £2,500 and has been sent to Tanzania enabling them to use the excess to buy other much needed medical equipment. A big thank you to all who contributed to the appeal.

FOOD BANKS

CARE IN THE CORONAVIRUS CRISIS

In these unprecedented times we are all asked to make sweeping changes in our lives, for our own good and that of others. In the Church of England, we have suspended church services to help to limit the spread of COVID-19. We won't meet on Sundays and the latest advice from the Church of England is that church buildings should also be shut to the public for private prayer.

​

 In our day-to-day lives can I encourage you to follow the advice given by the Government by: washing hands thoroughly and regularly, by catching anything you sneeze in a tissue and throwing the tissue in the bin, and, for the sake of all in our community, self-isolating if you or someone in your household, have a fever or new persistent cough, or are in a category of more vulnerable people (in particular if your immune system reduced, or you are over 70, or pregnant).

​

HELP!

Self-isolating can be hard, but in Inskip we are a caring community and help is at hand. If you would like any help, practical, emotional or spiritual, or if you would just like to chat, please do contact me on:

01772690157 or

​

With our prayers and best wishes,

Rev Paul Hunter and all at St Peter's church
