What books have shaped your world?

Above all, we pray for just peace in the Middle East and throughout the world.
Now more than ever, we must continue to pray for peace 🙏

Three pillars. Forty days. This is Lent.
Prayer During Lent we are called to pray for those whose voices are often ignored.
Lent is so much more than just giving up chocolate.
It's shaped by three practices that help turn faith into action - prayer, fasting and almsgiving.
Rooted in Jesus’ teachings in Matthew 6:1-18, Lent invites us to look beyond ourselves to notice the needs of others and to grow in faith.
Welcome to our new chair Archbishop Thabo Makgoba
Archbishop Thabo Makgoba is joining Christian Aid as our new Chair.
A lifelong advocate for dignity, justice and climate action, he brings global leadership and deep experience of tackling inequality.
We look forward to working together to challenge the root causes of poverty.
Our partner, Culture and Free Thought Association (CFTA) are providing essential items such as emergency food, water, sanitation, blankets and mattresses for families.
With your support and prayers, we can and will reach more people with the aid that they need.
No shelter. No heating.
Winter is unbearable for the people of Gaza.
Wael Talal and his family are some of the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza living in makeshift tents damaged by rain, wind and seawater waves.
Instead, it causes lifelong physical and psychological harm.
Our partners, SEND Sierra Leone, engage with schools and communities raising awareness of harmful practices like FGM.
We'll continue to work with our partners across the world until this harmful practice is stopped.
83% of women in Sierra Leone have undergone female genital mutilation.
Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is a violation of women’s and girls’ human rights.
FGM, also known as female genital cutting or female is the partial or full cutting of a girl’s clitoris and labia, for non-medical reasons.
There are no health benefits to FGM. #EndFGM

Teach us to choose good when the world feels broken. Give us courage to stand with those facing violence. Where we are divided, draw us together. Where suffering is ignored, stir us to act. May our faith be known in what we do, as we work for dignity, safety and peace for all.
‘Depart from evil, and go good; seek peace, and pursue it.’ (Psalm 34:14)
For us, peace is not passive.
It’s standing with communities facing violence, choosing justice over indifference and building hope where it’s needed most. #InternationalDayofPeacefulCoexistence
Let us unite in prayer and advocacy this Week of prayer for Christian Unity.
Where there is war, pray for the restoration of peace. Where we are divided, draw us together. Where suffering is ignored, stir us to act.
Together we can shine a light on injustices around the world 🙏
Throughout, the language is unflinching. Suffering is named clearly.
But hope is emphasised as something made real. It’s expressed through emergency supplies, food, healthcare and support.

‘We stand in the gap, in the spirit of making a difference.’ – Storm Cecile
In a world marked by conflict and inequality, hope can feel fragile or even absent.
Storm Cecile’s poem, ‘The unstoppable power of hope, speaks into that silence.
Yet this crisis receives almost no global attention.
Families are living through unimaginable hardship in silence. This isn’t by choice, but because the world simply isn’t listening.
Break the silence.

"Silence when mothers are fleeing, silence when children are starving, silence when homes are destroyed, silence when people are fleeing, silence when families are displaced, silence when disease is spreading, silence when conflict rises. Break the silence." Red image with white text and "break the silence" in black.
Why aren’t we talking about the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)?
More than 27 million people face acute hunger.
Over 7 million people have been displaced from their homes.
And children are growing up in the deadliest conflict since WWII.
This Christmas, millions of families have nowhere safe to stay.
Conflict and disaster have left mothers, fathers and children with nothing.
Will you support families to buy the nutritious food and hygiene supplies that could save lives?
Donate now 👉 caid.org.uk/CDK
The DRC are among the five poorest nations in the world and facing one of the largest global hunger crises of our time.
No one should have to live off so little.
Together, we can help support people living in the DRC 👉 caid.org.uk/CDA

In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), it’s estimated that over 70% of people live on £1.50 for an entire day.
That’s £1.50 for food, water, healthcare—everything…

What does £1.50 mean to you?

In the camp, life is painfully hard earning just 44p a day working in nearby fields to feed her children.
This Christmas, you can stand with mothers like Chance. Stand with women whose love is stronger than fear, whose courage keeps families alive 👉https://caid.org.uk/CCQ
Carrying her baby on her back and with her seven other children on foot, she set out into the night. Walking 50 miles, through fear and hunger, until they reached Katashola Camp.
Chance hasn’t seen her husband since that night. She still doesn’t know if he’s alive.
Image of Chance and her baby with the quote: 'I told my husband that I was going to leave for fear of being raped. I told him I intended to go with one child on my back and the seven others on foot.'
Graphic with the text: Fled at night... when violence reached her village, Chance had to make an impossible choice – but she knew her family had to escape to survive.
Image of her children walking past the shelters at camp with the quote: I thought my life would be happy–to work with my husband, feed and educate our children. I never expected to leave my village.
Image of Chance and her baby with the text: Fleeing to the Katashola Camp, she found safety, but life is still hard. Her days are filled with worry about how to feed her children, keep them healthy and hold on to hope for their future.
🚨When violence reached her village in DRC, Chance faced an impossible choice.
Soldiers had looted her shop and terrorised her neighbours. She knew she had to flee – or risk her life and her children’s.
The destruction of homes and infrastructure, food shortages, lack of clean water, and poor sanitation are making everyday life for displaced families a painful fight for survival.
Bring hope to families in the DRC 👉 caid.org.uk/CCI
Graphic with 100 baby icons with 4 of the icons in red and the rest in white. Text: 4 in 100 babies will die before their 1st birthday in the DRC.
At least 4 babies out of every 100 born will tragically die before their 1st birthday in the DRC.
For mothers every day is a battle to protect their children from hunger, disease & conflict. Families are doing everything they can to survive—yet the odds are stacked against them.
