Background on Refugees and asylum seekers

The UK government is offering to accept 20,000 Syrian refugees selected from those still in the Middle East.

 

Before rushing in to offer your spare room or collect van loads of food to take to Calais take a few moments to read up on the situation.

 

There is very useful guidance from the Local Government association on the current refugee situation here

http://www.local.gov.uk/refugees

 

The asylum seeker and refugee population in the UK - and in Lancashire is already established and needs our support.

 

Government Statistics show

There were 25,771 asylum applications (main applicants) in YE June 2015, an increase of 10%

compared with the previous 12 months (23,515). The number of applications remains low relative

to the peak number of applications in 2002 (84,132).

• The largest number of applications for asylum came from nationals of Eritrea (3,568), followed

by Pakistan (2,302) and Syria (2,204). A total of 11,600 people were granted asylum or an

alternative form of protection.

Fw: Out now! Exciting new e-book "The Interfaith Movement"

 

"The Interfaith Movement" by Philip Lewis and Charlotte Dando.  View this email in your browser "The Church of England has not only created space for the inclusion of other religious voices in the public sphere, but also actively facilitated and funded interfaith activities and must be commended for this. However, for the most difficult conversations to happen and for people from all faith and belief backgrounds to be full engaged, we must seek a truly equal playing field whereby the Church of England does not always assume the leadership role."    In 1942, in the shadow of the inhumanity of World War II, Archbishop William Temple co-founded the Council of Christians and Jews. Fast forward nearly sixty years and the question of Christian relations with Jewish people, and now more commonly with Muslims and other minority religions, remains pertinent. Circumstances and contexts have changed, but the difficulty of interreligious or interfaith relations is one which many people of faith (and indeed, many from non-religious backgrounds) are still grappling with. In the fifth book in the Temple Tracts series on religion and public life, Philip Lewis and Charlotte Dando offer a critical introduction to the "Interfaith Movement". The authors track the historic development of interfaith work at both institutional and grassroots levels, with a special focus on Anglican-Muslim relations in England. From reflecting on successful interfaith work the authors move on to asking difficult questions about the role and sustainability of the interfaith movement, and propose a series of recommendations aimed at ensuring that this significant work has a strong and positive future.     'The Interfaith Movement' is available to download as an e-book for just £2.99. Download Now Also available "This is an excellent book about the social implications of welfare of many kinds by cooperation between faith groups and (secular) local authorities in England. Whatever you own views on this matter, this book will set you thinking." 5 STARS BUY NOW: Faith, Progressive Localism and the Hol(e)y Welfare Safety Net by Greg Smith "A fascinating read, which makes a timely and profound contribution to the debate. Rev Dr Matthews' research is well grounded and yet honed by years of first hand experience. A must read for all those serious to speak in an informed and authoritative voice." 5 STARS BUY NOW: Grace & Power: Sexuality and Gender in the Church of England by Hayley Matthews    "Mapping the Material' is a very helpful contribution, by two leading thinkers in the field, towards a growing conversation seeking to re-describe and re-configure the relationship between 'faith' and 'the public sphere', a conversation with increasing importance" 4 STARS BUY NOW: Mapping the Material: Religious Practices in Changing Times by John Atherton and John Reader   "Short, snappy and insightful. A perfect overview for those who want to wrestle with what Christian theology might have to say about money today." 5 STARS BUY NOW: God & Money by Eve Poole   Facebook Twitter Website Email YouTube Copyright © 2015 William Temple Foundation, All rights reserved.
