Congratulations to CAFOD volunteer, Keith, who was presented with the King's Maundy Money at the Royal👑Maundy Service at St Asaph Cathedral on Maundy Thursday.

Maundy money is a symbolic gift recognising recipients years of dedication to their communities. His Majesty presented recipients with two purses containing the unique gifts. In the white purse was a set of specially minted silver Maundy coins totalling 77 pennies, to match The King’s age.

In the red purse was a £5 coin commemorating 100 years since Queen Elizabeth II’s birth, alongside a 50p coin marking the 50th anniversary of The King’s Trust.

A huge THANK YOU to Deacon Dave in Ruabon who very kindly took part in our Big Lent Walk. His faithful companion, the adorable Poppy 🐾 joined him on his adventures around North Wales such as along the Llangollen Canal. 💚🙏

Dave has raised an absolutely incredible £1,242 through his parish St Richard Gwyn.

We have loved seeing his updates, especially modelling our Big Lent Walk beanie hat and CAFOD hoodie! 💚

Thank you so much for everything Dave, you're a star! 🌟

Thanks to all who have donated so far to our Lent Appeal. 💚

Your love for our neighbours helps to put food on the table by supporting long-term projects that find innovative solutions such as building floating gardens that can keep vegetables growing even when there is flooding.
