Claire Evins works in the Marketing and Campaigns (MAC) team of Act for Peace (AfP), on a part time basis, three day per week with regular giving and Gifts of Peace.  Initially drawn to the job because it was a church based charity, Claire says that she loves working here.  She finds her job very rewardingbecause the fast paced environment and high energy involved make her days unique.

The Christmas Bowl has begun!

Please join us in this powerful act of faith, love and solidarity.

For over 67 years, the Christmas Bowl has been a way for Christians to express the love of Christ to those in great need around the globe, and affirm that every displaced or hungry person is worthy of empathy and compassion.

Giving is such an important part of Christian living. Last year, Christians just like you raised over $2.5 million for the Christmas Bowl. Your kind gifts helped to bring clean water, soap and toilets to South Sudanese refugees living in Ethiopia’s Gambella region and helped other people suffering around the world.
