Mission to Seafarers’ Sea Sunday

SEA SUNDAY is the second Sunday in July, is when we come together across the globe to celebrate the role seafarers play in our daily lives. To thank them for the hardships they face and the sacrifices they have been forced to endure due to the Covid lockdowns.  We ask you to remember seafarers in prayer, giving thanks for the crucial work they do.  You can join with your church, community group, school or individually by praying; by making an individual monetary donation. 

We ask our community churches to share news through a heartfelt sermon. 

400,000 seafarers have been stranded at sea after contracts ended.  The UN has called this situation a “humanitarian crisis”.  From coast to coast, our community gathers to give something back to these essential workers who spend months away from their families in often difficult conditions to help keep our global economy afloat.  Sea Sunday can also be celebrated any day of the year to suit your church.   Please support our critical work during these extraordinary times.
