A group of cyclists led by the 75-year-old minister, Revd Robert
de Berry are cycling the 750 mile route from Cape Wrath in Scotland, via the
Hope Valley to Peacehaven in Sussex. They are doing this to raise awareness of,
and support, two organisations, Release International and Christian Solidarity
Worldwide. Both are committed to raise awareness of the problem of hundreds of people
worldwide (many being Christians) who are imprisoned simply for practising
their faith and to intercede for their release.
The group is staying overnight in Leicester on 8 June. There
will be a meeting at St Paul’s at 7.30 p.m. when they will be explaining their
ride and publicising the problem of people who are not allowed to practice
their faith.
Christian Solidarity Worldwide is one of the charities
already supported by St Paul’s and it will be good to have this possibility of
supporting their actions.
