Charities we supportOver the last year we have supported a number of charities and organisations that reflect areas of community living that we care about as a church. These are:
Choices - Crisis SupportThe 'Choices' centre is a local centre that provides free and confidential advice and counselling to women and couples dealing with an unexpected pregnancy. At Choices you will find someone you can trust to be caring and understanding, someone who will listen and offer support, someone who will not pressurise but provide information, answer your questions and help you to explore your options before making your own decision. To contact 'Choices': Release EritreaRelease Eritrea is an advocacy group that calls upon Eritreans, friends of Eritrea and members of the international community to pray and call upon the Government of Eritrea to restore freedom of religion to the people of Eritrea and release for those imprisoned for their faith. MAP TO ERITREA. For an overview of the religious history of Eritrea by the founder of Release Eritrea, please follow this link: Persecutions of Christians in Eritrea. CARIS, IslingtonCaris Islington is a registered charity which runs two projects in Islington - a Bereavement Counselling Service for children and adults, and a Cold Weather Shelter. "Caris Islington is the visible expression of Christian Care and aims to work within an ethic of respect for everyone irrespective of age, disability, gender, race or sexuality" New WineEquiping churches to see Jesus' kingdom grow. New Wine's vision is to see the nation changed through Christians and churches being filled with the Spirit, alive with the joy of knowing and worshipping Jesus Christ, living out his Word, and doing the works of the Kingdom of God. All Saints have attended the New Wine annual summer festivals for the last four years. WEC InternationalWEC International is committed to seeing Jesus Christ known, loved and worshipped among the peoples who have yet to hear the gospel. Most of these 'remaining unreached peoples' are also the world's poorest and sometimes the most marginalized. WEC's core aim is to redress this imbalance – serving the last, first. Steve Kynoch, former All Saints church member and his wife, EunSuk Kynoch are currently serving as church planters with WEC in Spain. Ambassadors in Sport (AISAmbassadors in Sport exists to communicate the good news of Jesus Christ to all countries and people groups through football. The vision is to have an indigenous football ministry in every people group and country empowering the Church to engage the football culture at every level, leading to the transformation of individuals and communities through the power of the Gospel. Gareth Haddow, another former member of All Saints is currently working part-time for AIS in Hackney as a football coach. He also leads bible studies and devotions.
