We will be holding our Big Quiz night on Saturday 1st October at 7pm.  Join us in a team of 6 for an evening of fun and to raise funds for Tearfund!   Tickets are £5 per person and you can register via Eventbrite here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-big-quiz-tickets-423994307387

In addition, all gifts given on Sunday 2nd October during our Harvest Thanksgiving will be given to Tearfund too.

The money CBC raises for Tearfund through ticket sales and gifts will transform the lives of people like Zuleima. Zuleima is a 35-year-old mother of three from Venezuela. It is a country struggling beneath the weight of a massive economic crisis. Along with more than a million other Venezuelans, Zuleima made the decision to flee to neighbouring Colombia. "I was leaving my house, my home, my memories," Zuleima says, "It was very difficult to leave it all behind. The church opened its doors, and they helped me, not only giving me food and a place to live, but also taking care of my emotions, giving me words of hope, giving me words of faith."

As well as providing support for refugees' immediate needs, Tearfund's local church partners have been setting up support groups that help people like Zuleima find new income opportunities. A gift of £24 could provide two women like Zuliema with the training and tools they need to provide a better future for their families.
