Redbridge Carnival has announced that the BPCA Flood appeal will be their chosen charity

Redbridge Carnival have announced that the British Pakistani Christian Association Flood Appeal will be their chosen charity.  We are asking our Pakistani Christian community across the UK to come to the event and share in a multicultural, and multi faith experience that will serve great purpose in highlighting that Pakistani Christians are a reality and that we care for Pakistan.

We are seeking performances such as singing, dancing and drama form churches or groups in our community.  We are also seeking some keynote speakers such as Pastors or Association Chairman.  The theme for the event is Community Cohesion which is subject close to all our hearts as this is exactly what we wish to see for our persecuted family in Pakistan. 

Already Romail Gulzaar one of our more prominent figures has thrown his hat into the ring and has agreed to sing at Carnival.  Below is a video link to the song he will be performing:
