The collection for the Bishops’ Appeal for World Aid and Development at the General Synod Service of Holy Communion in St David’s Church, Naas, on Friday, 9th May, came to €2,200 (equivalent to £1,850).

Many members and guests at General Synod took home sunflower seeds from the Bishops’ Appeal stand to remind them of the seeds of hope planted through the work of Bishops’ Appeal overseas.  Bishops’ Appeal is grateful to everyone who supported us at Synod.

Donations for Bishops’ Appeal, and its individual appeals in response to emergency situations, can be made at any time online, by cheque, standing order, or through parish collections.  A full list of ways to give can be found on the Bishops’ Appeal website at https://bishopsappeal.ireland.anglican.org/give
