Parliament in Your Parish

Parliament in Your Parish – Fri 17 Sep 11-1 pm Parish Hall

We are delighted that our MP, Maria Caulfield, has agreed to come to St Thomas More Seaford on Friday 17 September to engage with us as Christians from the Lewes constituency on issues such as the causes of poverty, inequality and the climate emergency in anticipation of the COP 26 meeting in Glasgow in November.

Parliament in Your Parish is a CAFOD initiative responding to Pope Francis’s challenge in Fratelli tutti (2020) to Christians to ‘rethink the future of our common home’ in light of the global Covid pandemic. Members of Seaford, Lewes and Polegate parishes and other churches are also invited to come along. A Parliament in Your Parish meeting has taken place or is planned with MPs from over half the 26 constituencies in Arundel & Brighton diocese so far.

Please do put the date in your diaries — Fri 17 September, 11 am – 1 pm — and come along. Full briefing notes will be provided and non-verbal presence and support is welcomed along with those happy to ask questions or engage in discussion! Please let Vicky Cosstick know on [email protected] or 07798 803410 if you would like to come.
