Commitment for Life is the United Reformed Church’s global justice programme.
Through Commitment for Life local congregations can participate in actions for justice around the world. Commitment for Life belongs to every congregation. Many choose to support one or more region through prayer, learning, advocacy, and action for justice. Currently Purley United Reformed focus is on Central America – Bangladesh although we also pray and support other parts of the world and our community as well.
Moving Stories from Central America – newsletters are published bi-monthly.
