The journey of an Emergency Christmas Food box begins with you. Your online gift of £30 today could cover the cost of essential food, and if you were able to give multiple boxes, this would provide very generous help to parents and children in great need over Christmas.

We want to support children and families in Eastern Europe who are facing desperate and isolating poverty as well as freezing winter conditions where temperatures can often drop below -20°C, and strive to bring alive these words from Isaiah 40: "The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak." There are a lot of weary and hungry souls who need help over the darkest period of winter.

Please support this work if you can. As Christmas approaches, less work is available and basic food necessities and heating costs are getting more difficult to afford. Elena's family usually celebrate Christmas simply, visiting family and carolling from house-to-house.
