Support a project this Lent.
Explore below how your support can make a difference to the lives of our Fijian and Northern Ethiopian and Middle Eastern whānau.
Lent, in the Christian church, is a period of spiritual preparation for Easter. In Western churches it begins on Ash Wednesday, six and a half weeks before Easter, and is a chance for the Church to reflect Jesus Christ’s fasting in the wilderness before he began his public ministry.
Our Lenten Appeal calls the church to give sacrificially both financially and through prayer. Each year, we partner with you to raise funds for three projects that directly contribute to the health, wellbeing and development of the communities and people involved.
This Lent, we’re supporting projects in Uganda and The Middle East.

When cyclones strike, homes in Fiji are the first to fall. Mud Bricks are an innovative solution to create resilient, cyclone-proof housing. Your $2 donation will literally build cyclone resistant houses for climate resilient communities.
Inspired by one man’s faith filled question, the development project Bricks for Life has gone on to create incredible foundational services for the people and community of Baregota, Northern Ethiopia – from grain mills, water tanks, irrigation, feminine hygiene access and even a soap making business. We’re proud to support Bricks for Life this Lenten season.
