Aid to the Church in Need
Aid to the Church in Need is an organisation which exists to support Christians and others who suffer religious persecution because of their faith. This persecution shows itself in many ways including the killing of people
This autumn, Aid to the Church in Need are asking you, once again, to stand in solidarity with persecuted Christians and all who suffer for their peacefully held beliefs. ACN will be holding a week of events from 19 – 26 November with #RedWednesday as the highlight on Wednesday 22 November.
Red is the Christian colour of martyrdom. Christians are the most persecuted faith group in today’s world and #RedWednesday will honour all Christians who suffer and die for their faithfulness to Christ’s message of peace and love and all who suffer religious persecution.
#RedWednesday will shine a light on Christian persecution but also highlight the injustices perpetrated against other faith groups.

As a school we will light the Sanctuary of our Oratory red with classes being involved in prayer services. We will also have a bucket collection for money at interval and lunch.
