Wednesday 22 February — Ash Wednesday, launch 2012 Lent Appeal ‘Giving Ministry Wheels’

Here in London how good is it to live our link in the supermarket by buying Liberation and Harry’s Nuts from Mozambique?

Sunday 8 July — ALMA Sunday

Mid-End July — hopefully a welcome afternoon tea for Angolan and Mozambican Olympic teams
