Departure

Southwark Diocese and Southwark Cathedral are linked in friendship and prayer with four of the Anglican Dioceses in Zimbabwe.  The link enables church members to share their faith and their needs and to learn from each other.  

On Thursday 14 July a group of nine church members from the Croydon Episcopal Area of Southwark Diocese will leave Heathrow bound for Central Zimbabwe.   They will spend a week visiting churches, schools and hospitals there and finding out about church life.  Then as this group return home a group of seven will go from the Kingston Episcopal Area to Matabeleland.

Wendy Robins, the Diocesan Director of Communications and Bishop's Press Officer is travelling out with the Croydon Area Link Group and, when they return home on 21 July, she is joining the Kingston Area Link Group. Whenever she has the time and access to the internet and a power supply she is going to blog about their journeys.

We hope to post when we can on this blog to give those back home a sense of what we are seeing and learning as we go in order to inform your prayer too.
