Priority Areas

St Christopher’s directs giving towards mission, including support for community work and a place of welcome, regular financial support for mission partners, and occasional one-off collections for mission societies. Its report describes its overseas mission as supporting partners and praying for the church, with prayer, information and financial support for partners in different contexts. The charity undertakes Christian mission in its local area and supports missionaries working in the UK and overseas. Its giving therefore supports Christian mission through partner organisations, mission partners and community-facing work, alongside prayer and information.
