WE ARE in a position to announce that this yr’s Church Times Lenten appeal for the Train-A-Priest (TAP) Fund has surpassed last yr’s total. The final amount raised this yr is £46,922.52 — approaching double the 2023 total of £25,762.96.
Thank you to everyone who has give to this yr’s appeal. We know that many individuals give faithfully to TAP every yr, confident that each penny donated goes to support someone training for the priesthood. Owing to a generous bequest, for the past few years, we have now been in a position to divert funds to ordinands within the poorest countries in Africa.
It remains to be possible to present to TAP at any time throughout the yr. Donations made after this week shall be rolled forward into next yr’s appeal. Donations could be made quickly and securely online at: churchtimes.co.uk/train-a-priest-fund.
