There is an important role for us as Christian people at this time in making practical expressions of love and hope to our communities and to individuals. Here are 8 steps we can take today. Don’t be limited to 8 and don’t under-estimate what we can achieve together.
Give extra support to your local food banks
Watch out for the lonely, the anxious and the vulnerable
Reach out to EU nationals in your work place and your community
Watch over and support other faith groups and minority ethnic communities who are experiencing increased abuse
Encourage truthful and honest debate
Pray in public worship and private prayer
Work with other churches and faith communities and charities
Invite your community to come together
