Fair Trade Sunday
|
(1) Fair trade stall
(2) Good detailed article in the March parish magazine about what's happened on
"Make Poverty History" and it's successor campaigns
(3) Talk/role play about Fair Trade and the role of the World Bank
at the main service on 11th March (which was a "parade service with scouts/guides etc),
with the scouts playing the part of various countries
and the Rector being the World Bank and handing out monopoly money to them
in a unfair way in order to make the point! |
