0:01:070:01:12

-..to overcome poverty in more than

-50 countries around the world.

0:01:120:01:17

0:01:200:01:24

-Huw Thomas, Head of Christian Aid

-Wales, it's a big year for you.

0:03:120:03:17

-Yes, indeed.

-We celebrate our 70th birthday.

0:03:170:03:20

-It's a time to reflect on the

-achievements of seven decades...

0:03:200:03:25

-..to thank all our supporters...

0:03:250:03:27

-..and to look ahead

-to future projects.

0:03:270:03:30

-Let's go back to the beginning.

-How did Christian Aid begin?

0:03:300:03:34

-The history begins

-directly after WWII...

0:03:340:03:38

-..when thousands of refugees

-travelled through Europe.

0:03:380:03:42

-The churches of Britain and Ireland

-united to raise money...

0:03:420:03:46

-..to help those refugees,

-and it developed from that.

0:03:460:03:50

-We regard Christian Aid

-as a humanitarian charity...

0:03:500:03:54

-..that makes a difference

-in poor countries around the world.

0:03:540:03:58

-What are its other goals?

0:03:590:04:00

-The developmental work is crucial

-but we do so much more than that.

0:04:010:04:05

-In this country, we campaign about

-climate change, trade justice...

0:04:060:04:11

-..and sexual equality, which

-is another facet of the charity.

0:04:110:04:16

-Christian Aid Week

-is the single biggest act...

0:04:160:04:19

-..of Christian witness

-in Britain and Ireland.

0:04:190:04:23

-The support

-of Wales' churches and chapels...

0:04:240:04:27

-..is a prime example

-of Christ's love.

0:04:270:04:30

-Christian principles are at

-the root of the charity's founding.

0:04:300:04:35

-Is that still important this year?

0:04:350:04:36

-Is that still important this year?

-

-It's vital.

0:04:360:04:37

-We work with people of multi faiths,

-not a single faith...

0:04:380:04:41

-..but what drives us

-is our belief in Christ's love.

0:04:410:04:45

-It propels us to carry out the work

-that we do in the first place.

0:04:450:04:50

-We've been created and founded by

-the churches of Britain and Ireland.

0:04:500:04:55

-We work on their behalf,

-and that association is crucial.

0:04:550:04:59

-You launch a new appeal every year.

-What's the focus this time?

0:05:000:05:04

-Our current Christmas appeal

-runs until the end of January.

0:05:040:05:08

-It focuses on the health of mothers

-and their babies in Nigeria.

0:05:080:05:13

-We're raising money

-to provide vaccinations.

0:05:130:05:16

-For every pound

-we raise as a charity...

0:05:170:05:19

-..the British government matches it.

0:05:200:05:22

-It's an excellent time

-to donate to our charity.

0:05:220:05:27

-Morfydd Llwyn Owen

-was a prolific composer...

0:07:000:07:03

-..before her untimely death.

0:07:030:07:06

-Soprano Gail Pearson

-will now perform one of her works.

0:07:060:07:10

-This is

-Slumber-song of the Madonna.

0:07:100:07:12

-# Sleep, little baby

0:07:210:07:27

-# I love thee

0:07:280:07:34

-# Sleep, little king

0:07:350:07:38

-# I am bending above thee

0:07:380:07:43

-# How shall I know what to sing

0:07:430:07:48

-# Here in my arms

0:07:490:07:52

-# As I swing thee to sleep?

0:07:520:07:59

-# Hushaby low

0:08:000:08:04

-# Rockaby so

0:08:040:08:08

-# Kings may have

-wonderful jewels to bring

0:08:080:08:16

-# Mother

-has only a kiss for her king

0:08:160:08:23

-# Why should my singing

-so make me to weep?

0:08:240:08:30

-# Only I know that I love thee

0:08:300:08:36

-# I love thee

0:08:360:08:39

-# Love thee

0:08:390:08:44

-# I love thee #

0:08:500:09:02

-My command is this.

0:09:190:09:21

-Love each other as I have loved you.

0:09:220:09:25

-Greater love has no-one than this.

0:09:260:09:29

-To lay down one's life

-for one's friends.

0:09:300:09:34

-You are my friends,

-if you do what I command.

0:09:340:09:40

-I no longer call you servants...

0:09:410:09:43

-..because a servant does not know

-his master's business.

0:09:430:09:48

-Instead, I have called you friends.

0:09:480:09:51

-For everything that I learned from

-my Father I have made known to you.

0:09:510:09:56

-You did not choose me...

0:09:570:09:59

-..but I chose you

-and appointed you...

0:09:590:10:03

-..so that you might go

-and bear fruit that will last.

0:10:030:10:06

-And so that whatever you ask in

-my name, the Father will give you.

0:10:060:10:10

-This is my command.

0:10:110:10:15

-Love each other.

0:10:150:10:17

-Mari McNeill, you've been working

-with Christian Aid for four years.

0:13:250:13:31

-What attracted you?

0:13:310:13:33

-What attracted you?

-

-I approached Christian Aid...

0:13:330:13:35

-..looking for work experience,

-to be honest.

0:13:350:13:38

-I was a stranger to Christian Aid...

0:13:380:13:41

-..but wanted to discover ways...

0:13:410:13:43

-..in which I could serve God

-in whatever career he chose for me.

0:13:430:13:48

-I never thought for one moment

-that I'd end up working full time...

0:13:480:13:54

-..for Christian Aid.

0:13:540:13:56

-What are your duties

-from day to day?

0:13:560:13:59

-It's my job to work alongside

-churches, schools, ministers...

0:13:590:14:04

-..and volunteers, and mainly to

-share the work of Christian Aid...

0:14:040:14:08

-..with these communities...

0:14:090:14:11

-..and urge people

-to donate, take action...

0:14:110:14:15

-..and campaign...

0:14:150:14:17

-..and also to pray regularly

-for Christian Aid's work.

0:14:170:14:21

-We know how important collections

-are in chapels and churches...

0:14:210:14:25

-..but how important are the prayers?

0:14:250:14:27

-..but how important are the prayers?

-

-Prayer forms the basis of our work.

0:14:270:14:31

-If we can't pray

-for our partners across the water...

0:14:310:14:35

-..then there's no real power

-behind the work at all.

0:14:350:14:39

-Seeing the work with my own eyes...

0:14:390:14:42

-..I'm certain...

0:14:420:14:44

-..that chapels and individuals

-who pray for our donations...

0:14:450:14:49

-..that's where the real power

-of the work comes from.

0:14:490:14:53

-That's how God

-is going to build his kingdom.

0:14:540:14:57

-You've had experience

-of working with Christian Aid...

0:14:570:15:01

-..overseas.

0:15:010:15:03

-About four years ago, I went

-to Cambodia with Christian Aid.

0:15:040:15:08

-That was the first time

-I'd been to a poor country.

0:15:080:15:14

-It was a difficult experience.

0:15:140:15:18

-It was a shock to witness the extent

-of the poverty in that country.

0:15:190:15:24

-I met girls who were

-in danger of being trafficked.

0:15:240:15:30

-I met communities in rural areas...

0:15:300:15:34

-..where mines were exploding

-all around their communities.

0:15:350:15:39

-They lived in minefields.

0:15:390:15:41

-I couldn't believe

-their lives there.

0:15:410:15:44

-How did the charity

-transform the situation in Cambodia?

0:15:450:15:49

-Christian Aid

-worked with all kinds of partners...

0:15:490:15:53

-..in Cambodia.

0:15:530:15:55

-Christian partners

-and non-faith partners too.

0:15:550:16:00

-The work was so inspirational.

0:16:010:16:03

-When we give money to a charity,

-it's hard to imagine...

0:16:030:16:07

-..the difference

-the donations will make.

0:16:070:16:14

-But the money is multiplied

-between different communities...

0:16:140:16:19

-..and goes so far.

0:16:190:16:21

-I'm sure

-you're grateful to Christian Aid.

0:16:210:16:24

-Yes, I'm fortunate to have

-a career with Christian Aid.

0:16:240:16:28

-But mainly, I'd like to thank God

-for the opportunities he's given me.

0:16:290:16:33

-My faith has blossomed.

0:16:340:16:36

-I know how to respond to such

-major concerns as global poverty.

0:16:360:16:41

-And I can praise God...

0:16:410:16:44

-..through the things I can do in

-my life and share them with others.

0:16:450:16:49

-# Ye people rend your hearts

0:16:510:16:55

-# Rend your hearts

-and not your garments

0:16:550:16:59

-# For your transgressions

0:16:590:17:01

-# The prophet Elijah

-has sealed the heavens

0:17:010:17:06

-# Through the word of God

0:17:070:17:10

-# I therefore say to ye

0:17:110:17:14

-# Forsake your idols, return to God

0:17:140:17:20

-# For he is slow to anger

0:17:200:17:25

-# And merciful and kind and gracious

0:17:250:17:31

-# And repenteth him of the evil

0:17:320:17:37

-# If with all your heart

0:17:420:17:46

-# Ye truly seek me

0:17:460:17:51

0:17:510:17:56

0:17:560:18:01

-# Thus saith our God

0:18:150:18:19

-# Thus saith our God

0:18:190:18:24

-# Oh, that I knew

-where I might find him

0:18:250:18:31

-# That I might even come

-before his presence

0:18:310:18:37

-# Oh, that I knew

-where I might find him

0:18:370:18:43

-# That I might even come

0:18:430:18:49

0:18:500:18:54

0:19:260:19:33

0:19:340:19:43

-Merciful God

-you know our weakness...

0:19:570:20:00

-..and still you are faithful.

0:20:010:20:03

-You know our despair

-and still you inspire hope.

0:20:030:20:07

-You know our need

-and still you show love.

0:20:080:20:12

-You are life for our souls.

-You are the life of the world.

0:20:150:20:19

-Give us the courage and persistence

-of those who are strong...

0:20:190:20:23

-..but still need our help. Amen.

0:20:240:20:27

-As the programme draws to a close,

-I'm sure you'll join me...

0:20:350:20:39

-..in wishing Christian Aid

-every success...

0:20:390:20:43

-full of faith, hope and love.

0:20:430:20:46

-Love has been

-a central theme this week.

0:20:470:20:49

-Fittingly, we end with our final

-hymn, Tyred, Iesu, I'r Anialwch.
