mission support
St Paul's is committed to giving financial and prayer support to six chosen missionary activities each year. We are currently supporting the following organisations:
Welcare in Bromley
Welcare works across several South London boroughs, offering support and advice for families with children aged up to the age of 13. It seeks to mitigate the impacts of social isolation, domestic abuse, financial hardship or disadvantage through small but significant interventions which can transform the lives of vulnerable children and their families.
Read more about Welcare's history here, and read its latest newsletter here.
Forthcoming events:
Welcare Coffee Morning and Mince Pie Tasting - Saturday 9th December, 10am – 12 noon, here at St Paul’s Church Hall. Come and choose your tastiest mince pie, and support Welcare in Bromley at the same time.
Welcare Fundraiser – Christmas Tree Festival at St Francis Church, West Wickham, BR4 0PW. Saturday 9th December (10am - 1pm), Sunday 10th (12pm - 3pm), Wednesday 13th (10.30am - 1pm), Friday 15th (10am - 1pm) or Saturday 16th (10am - 1pm).

Church Mission Society
(Ben & Katy Ray at Neema Crafts, Tanzania)
Neema Crafts provides training and employment opportunities for over 100 people with disabilities in Iringa, Tanzania. It seeks to change negative attitudes towards people with disabilities in the local society, and to provide dignity and hope for many people who previously relied on street begging or were hidden away at home.

CAP Penge
Christians Against Poverty is a national charity which specialises in free-of-charge debt counselling for those in financial difficulty. It works through regional offices in partnership with local churches. St Paul's provides support to CAP Penge, which is run in partnership with St John's Church, Penge.

Its channels broadcast in Arabic, Persian Turkish, and provide inspirational, informative and educational programming.
