Supporting Christian action in Rugby

We firmly believe in putting our faith into action, following Jesus’ example of helping those whom society forgets or deliberately ignores, for example:

· Those in debt

A free, first class, personal and holistic debt counselling service is provided to all, regardless of their faith, by Christians Against Poverty; call Lynn free via the CAP national number, 0800 328 0006 

· The elderly

Pastoral and spiritual care is provided in care homes (Gift of Years, Bilton House) and hospital chaplaincy 

· The homeless

Members help at the day centre on Newbold Road 

· The lonely

Members visit local sheltered housing for tea and a chat, sometimes with campervan Elmer (pictured above) 

· The poor

Our church collects for Rugby foodbank and our members volunteer for it, too

· The residents and schools in our area

Our Community Chaplin Ruth works within some Rugby schools supporting pupils. We pray for local people, and also take prayer requests paddoxprayer@gmail.com (please respect others’ privacy by not disclosing inappropriate info)
