The great sadness facing the Ukraine - A message from Rev’d Vicci As we watch the unfolding of the horrific situation in the Ukraine many of us are wondering what we can do to help. Some of you will already have responded and others will be wondering what is the best way to respond. As in many other difficult and dangerous situations across the world, the Methodist charity “All We Can” is working in partnership with people on the ground to do the best we can in all the ways that we can. Churches and individuals who wish to support their work in the Ukraine can find more detail here:

God bless,
