£12,000 REACHED! - A THIRD VILLAGE TO HAVE WATER THIS YEAR.
OUR TARGET OF £12,000 HAS BEEN REACHED
A massive, heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed so generously towards the Christmas Lights.
Now the children and the residents of KUSAMAI will be able, this year, to drink fresh clean water thanks to you. The villagers will be able to grow crops, sell the surplus at market and send their children to school, because of you. The water provided will transform the village and bring long term development. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT. OUR FAMILY HAS TREASURED THE ENCOURAGEMENT YOU HAVE GIVEN US AND ALL YOUR KIND COMMENTS. xxxxx

ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART TWO
I AM PROUD OF MY WRITING, FOR JESUS’S SAKE, THAT HAS HAD ME FOUND INNOCENT IN HEAVEN, BUT TWICE A CRIMINAL ON THE EARTH. THE FIRST IN 1990 WHEN I WROTE A BIBLICAL TEXT ON THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT IN PEACEFUL PROTEST ABOUT THE BOMBING OF YOUNG IRAQI RECRUITS DURING THE FIRST GULF WAR. THE SECOND, IN 2016 WHEN I WROTE ON MY BLOG, TO ALERT THE PUBLIC ABOUT A PAEDOPHILE, AND WAS SUCCESSFUL IN FORCING THE AUTHORITIES TO STOP HIM HAVING ACCESS TO CHILDREN. THERE WAS ALMOST A THIRD! IN 1997, WHEN I WAS ARRESTED FOR NAILING MY PROPOSALS FOR REFORM OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND ON THE DOOR OF CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL. WORDS ARE POWERFUL MESSAGES THAT CHALLENGE CORRUPTION, CONFRONT THE WICKED AND CREATE A BETTER WORLD. JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED TO COMMUNICATE HIS WORDS, IRRESPECTIVE OF THE COST.
"You brave, courageous and wonderful man. To stand up for the truth in the face of suppression and oppression is truly an act of a pure heart."
