On Saturday September
13th the cyclists from Ebrington Velo, led by Martin Halls, left St Eadburgha’s to cycle some 50 miles taking in 15 churches to
raise money for GHCT. The good news is
that half of the sponsorship they raise will come straight back to St
Eadburgha’s and the rest will go into the Trust’s fund which is used to make
grants to churches. St Eadburgha’s has
been the recipient of grants in the past and hopes to be again in the future –
so a double benefit!
We have made it easy for you in three different ways:
1.
Go
to www.justgiving.com/Ebrington-velos
and make your donation there
2.
Visit
St Eadburgha’s Church and sign the sponsorship form at the back of the church
3.
Contact,
Kim (01386 593295) or kimbinder@btinternet.com)
or Stan (01386 593250), and make your pledge
GHCT helps places of Christian worship with repairs and improvements to the fabric of buildings & contents. The aim is to help keep the 500+ churches and chapels alive, both for worship and as active centres of community life.
