Bishop's Harvest Appeal 2025

Dear friends,

Thank you for your generous support for last year’s Bishop’s Harvest Appeal. Churches across Cumbria showedpractical love for neighbours near and far, and I am deeply grateful.

This year, the second of our three year commitment, we continue supporting Christian Aid’s work in Burkina Faso, helping families build simple and sustainable livelihoods in a tough climate; and partnering with Church Mission Society in Northern Argentina as in

digenous Christians are equipped for ministry through the CeFA training centre.

As before, 10% of gifts to the Appeal will be shared with two local partners here in Cumbria - Cumbria Development Education Centre (CDEC) and Carlisle One World Centre (COWC) - helping us grow understanding and action for global justice at home.

Please would you pray, give, and share the Appeal in your church this harvest season so that, by God’s grace, these communities can flourish with hope and dignity.

With every blessing

The Rt Rev Rob Saner-Haigh, Acting Bishop of Carlisle
