Beckenham Methodist Church
Outreach
TC's
The Church does not exist solely for itself - it is there for the benefit of all. Beckenham Methodist Church runs a local project under the supervision of its Ministry and Outreach Committee - TC's at Bromley Road Church. The visitor can enjoy a cup of tea or a snack in good company, and a chance to talk to a sympathetic hearer. TC's also supplies Fairly-Traded goods.
The profit from these activities is given as grants to aid specific projects at home and overseas. Here are the twelve organisations that benefitted from our work in 2006:
- Limuru Children's Centre, Nairobi, Kenya. Click here to read an account of a visit to the Centre written by a young Canadian volunteer teacher.
- God Our Father Children's Home, Malindi
- and also

And of course our fair-trading policy directly benefits
What are we counting?
"Malnutrition contributes to 60 percent of the 10.9 million deaths
of children under five each year in developing countries. This
translates into one child dying every five seconds."
(U.N. World Food Programme).
