This year, our Advent Ask is in support of the Diocese of Biharamulo in Tanzania and the repair of the Al Ahli Hospital, a Christian hospital in Gaza run by the Anglican Church.

Two years ago, St. Paul’s began a relationship and partnership with the Diocese of Biharamulo in Tanzania. We supported the construction of the Nyakanazi Nursery School and helped feed the children who attended the school. This year, we are happy to partner with them again to support their growing diocese with church planting and community building.

In addition to supporting the Diocese of Biharamulo and as a response to the tragedies in Gaza and Israel, we will be supporting the reconstruction of Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza. This is a Christian hospital in Gaza run by the Anglican Church. St. Paul’s will join with Anglicans worldwide as Archbishop Justin Welby, with the Archbishop of Jerusalem, Hosam Naoum, asked the whole Anglican Communion to support this cause.

This year, we hope to raise $50,000 to be equally divided between the two causes. Click below for ways to give to our Advent Ask.
