For over 80 years Christian Aid has worked around the world to overcome the injustice of poverty and tackle its underlying causes. It is thanks to supporters like you that Christian Aid and its overseas partners have been able to do this.
The Restore Campaign
Christian Aid believe that poverty is caused by human structures and systems and that we all have a responsibility to speak out against injustice and challenge the causes of poverty.
One way we can do this is to ask the UK Government to limit the power of private lenders by introducing new debt justice laws.
There is more information about the Restore campaign on the Christian Aid website caid.org.uk, including an online petition to sign.

The Song of Kingdom Come
I have a voice, you have a voice, we have a voice and when we sing together, a line is drawn; and hope reborn, this is the song, the song of Kingdom Come.
We heard the cries of distant neighbours,
the dispossessed, the refugee
and God’s command to feed the hungry
and set them free, and set them free.
We heard the Word, the New Commandment
and we reclaimed the prophet’s call
to love the world without condition
God’s love for all, God’s love for all.
A reckless love that knows no borders,
that speaks the truth to those in power.
That shines a light on cruel indifference,
this is God’s hour, this is God’s hour -
When we will stand against injustice,
with all who live against the grain.
Until their poverty is over
and love shall reign, and love shall reign.
We won’t stand by while sisters suffer,
or turn blind eyes to ruthless wrong,
our psalm of praise will be compassion,
this Kingdom Song, this Kingdom song.
A song of love and liberation
of healing hope and lasting peace.
A taste of life in all its fullness,
God’s masterpiece, God’s masterpiece.
I have a voice, you have a voice, we have a voice and when we sing together,
a line is drawn; and hope reborn, this is the song, the song of Kingdom Come.
