Dear Supporting Churches
We often thank God for your compassion and cheerful giving to support poor and disadvantaged
people in Ethiopia. May God bless you as you have blessed others! In recent months the
Church and Community Mobilisation for Development programme (CCMD) has been expanded
to new areas and has had encouraging results.
The programme aims to help church leaders and congregations to look beyond their church
walls and use the resources they have to positively impact the lives of the poorest in the surrounding communities. It starts with workshops for church leaders and full-time staff. They then
run workshops for their congregations, supported by IUDD staff. One possible outcome of these
workshops is that local churches decide to start Self-Help Groups in their communities amongst
the poorest of the poor. Workshops are also held for local government officials so that they understand what is happening when they see this kind of activity taking place in their area and can
be supportive.
In the last few months we have focused on three Ethiopian regions - Oromia, Southern Nations,
Nationalities and Peoples (SNNP), and Dire Dawa Administrative City. In total, across all churches, 200 new Self Help Groups were formed in the last three months. As part of the workshops
the participants conduct a survey of their local areas. It is not uncommon to find that there are
250 families living in poverty in the communities around each urban church. We find that after
several years of involvement in Self Help Groups, 60% of those who participate would say that
they have become self-reliant, able to be independent and are no longer in poverty.
In recent months we have hosted visitors to our programme - both domestic and international
visitors have met Self Help Groups.
MA students are also noticing the CCMD approach. One wrote a thesis entitled “the CCMD approach and its impact on the sustainable development in Ethiopia”. It is a great step forward to
get endorsement of our work from beyond the church arena. There are also cases where local
government has encouraged and specifically licensed some churches to have community involvement. Please pray for all of the churches that are doing church and community mobilisation
workshops at the moment:
 For church leaders to grasp the vision and to be active
 For congregations to be enthusiastic
 For local government groups to be supportive
 For the poor in their communities for whom daily life is a struggle
 And that the programme will be a means for people to come into
God’s kingdom.
We thank you for your amazing support and for your prayers

AMBLERS WALK
SATURDAY 8th NOVEMBER (9.30 start)
An easy walk of 4 miles from Kerridge
A short walk from Kerridge, near Bollington, along field paths with
good views of the Kerridge Ridge all the way to Swanscoe Hall.
Towards the end of the walk the route climbs at a steady gradient
onto the ridge, along to White Nancy, where there is a steep
drop, but on a well made path, back down to Kerridge. It is possible to avoid the climb onto the ridge if you have a map and are
happy to be guided by this back to Kerridge.
There are toilets at the Rangers Office in Bollington, shortly before
the start of the walk and lunch can be had at recommended
Bulls Head in Kerridge (Spanish tapas or more traditional food).
Warm and waterproof clothing plus boots likely to be needed.
Please note the start time is 9.30 from St Andrews car park. We
should complete the walk by about 12.30 and be home shortly
after 1pm or say 2.30 if you stay for lunch.
Further information from Peter Bailey
PLEASE LET HIM KNOW BY
THURSDAY EVENING (NOV
6th) IF YOU PLAN TO STOP
