WELCOME to the
VALE of AYLESBURY METHODIST CIRCUIT (23/29)
Pictorial Tour of the Circuit Churches
The Vale of Aylesbury Methodist Circuit is a mutually supportive group of 18 Churches in the Vale of Aylesbury committed to a common purpose of channelling God’s unchanging love for all people in our constantly changing world.
We range from the large Aylesbury town centre church with its Community Centre to smaller town or village churches.(...more)

Special Notice
Karibuni Trust and Kenya
Many people have asked us if the appalling situation in East Africa is affecting the projects supported by Karibuni Trust in Kenya. The answer is ‘YES’.
A few years ago we started sending £1,000 a year to Rev Golicha, the Superintendent Minister of the North East Methodist Mission, covering an area from Maua to Wajir and the borders with Ethiopia and Somalia, to enable him to distribute food to women and children there. Every four months he sends details of how he has spent the money – with £1,000 he feeds 400 families with maize flour each year! He tells us there has been no rain; there is a shortage of food and water; outbreaks of disease and people and animals are dying - and can we please help more?
In Kenya it is estimated that 2.4 million people will need emergency food aid. As a result of drought related crop failure, basic food prices are rocketing – even by up to 200%. Therefore all the projects we support, with 1,200 children, are affected and we will have to send extra money for food and salary increases.
So YES, Karibuni is being affected. How can you help? Respond to appeals from UNICEF and other agencies – YES! Or Bill and Joy completed their 5-mile Red Kite Ramble on 26 June and it’s not too late to sponsor them – we have forms with us today.
Many thanks
