Church Resources
Our vision is to see the grace of God overflowing to a world in need. Anglican Aid builds relationships between churches here and around the world to strengthen churches and transform communities.
These resources will inform and inspire your church as they care for brothers and sisters across the globe with Anglican Aid.
Light & Life Christmas Appeal
For your bulletin:
‘Light and life to all he brings’ as we sing in the Christmas carol ‘Hark the Herald Angels Sing’, reminds us that Jesus is the light of the world who brings life to all people.
We are to shine as lights for Jesus in the darkness of this world. Let your light shine this Christmas by giving a gift to Anglican Aid’s Light & Life Christmas Appeal. Your gift will help brothers and sisters overseas to shine among their communities like stars in the sky as they provide: safe homes for women and children in India fleeing domestic violence, a refuge for teenagers in Indonesia with unexpected pregnancies, job skills training for young women in poor rural areas of Tanzania, education for children in the brick kilns of Pakistan…and more!

Anglican Aid prayer
Heavenly Father,
Whose will it is that all people will be saved, and come to a knowledge of the truth, and whose will it is that we care for the poor, needy, widows, orphans and refugees.
We pray for the work of the Archbishop of Sydney’s Anglican Aid.
We pray for your grace to fulfil every good work that you have prepared for us in advance to do as we anticipate the triumphant return of our King and Saviour, in whose name we pray.
Amen.
