City of God Appeal - Day 34

Since this appeal ends on Epiphany, Sunday January 6, it wouldn't surprise me if they come close to 8 thousand dollars. I'm sure the checks will be coming to even after the 6th.

The appeal total now stands at:

$6957.59

Which is a bit good. Especially as I think Lisbeth has found some money in a jacket pocket that I don't think has been included yet.

We received the following email from Our Man in Rio today:

Elizabeth and Jonathan, congratulations for the almost 7000 dollar mark... That will surely help Christ the King... 13,000 reais is really a lot of money for that community (it is actually almost 2 years of pledging there).

Blessings in Christ.


Don't forget that we close the PayPal facility at midnight on this coming Sunday. Then we will wait a week for any last minute cheques to turn up. We really must hit the $7500 mark but there's still a teeny weeny bit of hope deep down in my pessimistic soul that thinks there's just a chance we could do better.

The OCICBW... Community Christmas Appeal this year is raising money to help pay for the work being done by the Anglican Church of Christ the King in the City Of God district of Rio De Janeiro. Full details about the project and how to send your gifts can be found HERE.

And don't forget to

And if possible, advertise the appeal on your own sites as this belongs to all of us.
Go and pay MadPriest a visit. You'll enjoy it.



More later.
