New Website Launched by Archbishop of York

Acts 435

A revolutionary new website is been piloted in the Diocese of York. Acts 435 has been launched by the Archbishop of York, and it allows people to give money directly to others:

www.acts435.com

When so many people need so much help, giving can sometimes feel hit and miss, and choosing between charities can be hard. Acts435 puts people who can give in touch with people who are in need with the Church as the physical, face-to-face forum to enable virtual, online giving.

Acts 435 was inspired by the works of the early church, as described in the Acts 4:32 to 4:35. The early disciples of the risen Christ shared their possessions, and passed money to the apostles to give to anyone who had need. 100% of what is donated via Acts435 goes directly to those in need.

We hope that you will support Acts435, and help spread the word about the website, which you can find here: www.acts435.com. We need people to be advocates and donors - if you know of someone who might want to help in this way, please tell them about the website. If you know of someone who needs help, please tell them about the idea, and help them get in touch with an advocate.
