Dear John

We're pleased to announce that Church Action on Poverty Sunday will take place on 19 February 2023. We hope you and your church will give, act and pray with us on that date.

Give, Act and Pray as part of the movement to unlock UK poverty

When people come together to reclaim their dignity, agency and power, we can make huge changes. In ourselves. In our communities. In the world.

Building a powerful movement to unlock poverty has never been more important. The cost of living crisis threatens to sweep millions into poverty, threatening their dignity and agency. No one should have to face the choice between heating and eating.

To prevent more people being swept deeper into poverty, it’s vital that those of us affected have a say. Now more than ever, churches and communities need to stand together and uphold each other’s dignity, agency and power.

On 19 February, Church Action on Poverty Sunday, join with other churches across the UK in giving, action and prayer. Celebrate the transformational possibilities of people coming together to reclaim their dignity, agency and power.

Use our free worship resources to reflect and pray for change, and raise funds to enable more people like Gemma to speak truth to power. 

Put the date in your diary. Speak to your church about using our materials for your Sunday service. And click below to sign up. We'll send you a pack with worship materials, stories and fundraising ideas.

Best wishes
