MaMaD project. Today is the last day for our MaMaD project to support a Tear Fund, giving aid to Zimbabwe. Some envelopes on the table at the back of Church. Let’s get these envelopes in as soon as possible, so that the people can receive aid as soon as possible. There is huge suffering in Zimbabwe due to poor harvests and astronomical inflation.
