All-age Church Service Talk

We’re going to look at a couple of Bible passages:Matthew 25 v31-40 and Deuteronomy 15 v 7-11.And we’re going to talk about how each one of uscan get involved and make a difference by doing

something called Toilet Twinning.

You didn’t know your toilet could have a twin, did you?

Toilet humour

Toilet humour

Q. What did one toilet say to another toilet?

A. You’re looking flushed

Toilet humour

Some thieves broke into the local police stationand stole all the toilets.

The police are investigating but they have nothing to go on!

No toilet, no joke

A lot of people think thetoilet is the best invention ever

Poo makes kids poorly

In lots of places around the world, there aren’t any toilets.Children go to toilet in the open air.

Flies land on the poo and then land on food.Children get sick.

Every minute, three children under the age of 5 diebecause of dirty water and poor sanitation

The difference a loo makes

In Ethiopia, Tadelech’s eight children were constantly sick

Here’s one way to make a big difference to someone like Tadelech.

Twin your toilet, with the charity Toilet Twinning.

So what can we do to help?

Local church network

Toilet Twinning works through local churches on the ground,because the church is open 24/7.

The church knows who are the poorest peoplein its community and who most needs help.

Perhaps most importantly, the church is trusted by the community.

Open-handed and generous

So today, let’s remember that poverty is personal.It’s personal to God.

Can we make it personal for us too?Because if we do, we can make a huge difference;

one person at a time.
