Hear from three different speakers about our call as Christians to support refugees and asylum seekers and the various ways we can answer it
About this Event

Join us for a one-hour webinar, chaired by Bishop Saju, as part of our Lent Appeal in support of Baca, a charity with a base in Loughborough which supports young refugees who arrive in the UK without any family.

You'll have a chance to hear, and ask questions of, our speakers who have supported refugees and asylum seekers in various ways across the Diocese including:

  • Jimmy Zachariah, CEO of Baca
  • Revd Claire Goode, who led a quilting retreat at Launde Abbey to create a quilt in the colours of the Ukrainian flag, which was sold to raise money for Ukrainian refugees and which now hangs in the Ukrainian Club Kalyna in Leicester.
  • Kat Gibson, Intercultural Pioneer Minister at Roots IWC, who leads a team of volunteers providing support for asylum-seekers and refugees living in Leicester

No matter what your gifting, your role or your context, we hope you'll leave inspired and with a sense of how God might be calling you to support refugees and asylum-seekers in our communities and beyond.
