Zambia '08 Visits
We intend to continue to support the people of Chipili with our regular prayers and with gifts that will help them in their lives and activities. The beginnings of micro-credit schemes will, we hope, enable them to develop initiatives for improvement for themselves.
In the spring and summer of 2008, there were two visits to Zambia by members of our Benefice.
Revd Liz Smith led a team on a fact-finding mission to Chipili. She was accompanied by Sandra Freeborn, Pam, Trevor and Alex Hoddinott. Click here for their account.
Jasmine Bennett also went to Zambia on a trip partly funded by the Church of St Peter and St Paul and its parishioners. Click here for Jasmine's account.
