Gift, act and pray with us

Church Action on Poverty Sunday: Food, faith & fellowship. 18 October 2026

Save the date! – Church Action on Poverty Sunday is on 18 October 2026 

On Church Action on Poverty Sunday, we give, act and pray together in our churches around the UK. We know that by doing so we can help to bring about a more just and compassionate society, where everyone can live life to the full, freed from poverty.

More than 75 churches took part during 2025. Thank you all!

The 2026 theme is Food, Faith & Fellowship. The resources will be published in summer 2026, but you can sign up now, to make sure you receive them as soon as they’re ready.

Churches have to do this. You have got to put people who are poor first, I think. We have been doing this for five years and people are coming all the time, and we find out a lot from people when they come. It changes our idea of what scripture means.
