Supporting
Jabez
There
are various ways in which you can support the work of Jabez. As well as Praying
and Giving - both of which are essential for our work, there
are various other imaginative ways in which Jabez could benefit with very little
effort and at no extra cost to you! Please have a look at Shopping
and Recycling for more information. If
you are feeling more active and like the idea of actually Doing
something for Jabez, how about taking part in a sponsored event - or even organizing
one of your own?
Or how about arranging a fundraising event for your family
or friends? Sponsored and fundraising events can be really good fun and there
are all sorts of things you could do! We'd be happy to talk with you about your
ideas and will do what we can to support you. For
the very adventurous of you, how about walking part of the Great Wall Of China,
or perhaps canoeing on the Zambezi, or maybe even climbing Kilimanjaro? If you're
interested in these possible sponsored challenges and would like to know more,
please contact us
