EMERGENCY APPEAL – We will be collecting today for those affected by the floods in Kerala.<br />
Please put donations in the copper pots at the back of church. If you can gift aid, please<br />
use a Christian Aid envelope. SMR has become a Christian Aid Emergency <strong>Church</strong> – so<br />
we contribute directly to Christian Aid rather than via DEC. DEC distribute funds<br />
between partner charities, including Christian Aid, who work with local partners in places<br />
of crisis.<br />

donations to the <strong>Church</strong> Wardens or the Parish Office.<br />
