WITH a fortnight to go until the total for this year's Church Times Train-A-Priest (TAP) Fund appeal is announced, there is still time to make a donation, or hold a special collection at your church.

Many people are celebrating the 20th anniversary of the ordination of women to the priesthood (in the C of E) this year, and could be encouraged to make their thanksgiving tangible in a gift to TAP. Why not help the priests of the future, of both sexes, complete their training? A colour leaflet explaining how TAP helps can be downloaded from our website: www.churchtimes.co.uk.

You can give by cheque, postal order, cash, and charity cheque. The Gift Aid form is printed again here. But many of our readers find it simplest to use our secure online giving page: www.hymnsam.co.uk/train-a-priest.aspx

Please send other donations to: TAP Fund, Church Times, 13a Hellesdon Park Road, Norwich NR6 5DR. For an acknowledgement, please enclose a SAE. To earmark a donation for the TAP Special Hardship Fund, please use a covering note.
