Thank you so much for choosing to spend your Lent time with us or deciding to commit the next six weeks to focusing your support on MAF. We hope that, throughout the next 40 days, we are able to encourage, challenge and give you opportunities to deepen your relationship with God and involvement with MAF. Each week, there is a different theme which focuses either on an aspect of MAFs work or on the lives of the people to whom we fly. Within these themes there are three ways in which you can direct your devotions for that week: Raise Praise, Raise Prayers or Raise Pounds. Raise Praise: A focus on the ways in which God blesses you. Please use this time simply to thank God for all the ways in which He provides and cares for you. We have given a couple of ideas to get you going, but feel free to explore beyond this.
Raise Prayers: A focus on the needs of others. Join with MAF to pray for specific countries, people or situations that need Gods power to change them.
Raise Pounds: Creative ways you can give to MAF. This may be by giving up something for a week and saving the money you would have spent, or by giving as a way of thanking God for His blessings that week. If you decide that you are going to give up something for the whole 40 days (for example, chocolate) then please consider giving the money you would save to MAF. Ways to give: Money box - we can send you an MAF money box if you would like one to collect your pennies in. Please get in touch with your details and well pop one in the post. Just Giving - go to www.justgiving.com/mafuk and follow the easy steps under the link Make your page. It takes only a few minutes. You can personalise it and share your progress with others. Cheque/Direct Debit - please dont send money through the post. Wed much rather you put it in your bank and send us a cheque. Alternatively, call us or visit our website to set up a one-off or regular Direct Debit payment. Keep in touch: Please let us know how you are doing throughout Raise & Praise! Send us a letter, give us a call or get involved online. Wed love to hear from you and it would be a real encouragement to MAF and other Supporters who have got onboard with the challenge.
