THANK you to readers who’ve responded to this yr’s Church Times Train-A-Priest (TAP) Fund appeal. So far, £8623.44 has been raised to assist ordinands in Africa, a lot of whom struggle to support themselves and their families.
We are conscious that many readers have their very own financial pressures, and generously support other causes, are so are deeply grateful for any donations. True to the history of the TAP Fund, not a single penny is used for the administration of the fund, in order that donors can ensure that the whole lot they provide will go on to ordinands as they prepare for ministry in among the most difficult conditions on the earth.
Thanks to a legacy of nearly £80,000, TAP grants proceed to be available to any English ordinands who experience financial difficulties. (These are disbursed by the Ministry Division.)
Donations might be made quickly and securely here.
