In February every year we celebrate Bray Day, a day when SPCK and USPG come together for a church service and time of thanksgiving in remembrance of our co-founder the Revd Dr Thomas Bray. This year the event is taking place online on Monday 15th February and will have the theme of: Pastoral Care, Literary Cure and Religious Dissent: Zones of Freedom in the British Atlantic (c 1630-1720). The Rt Revd and Rt Hon Lord Rowan Williams of Oystermouth PC will join Bray Day as USPG launch the results of a fascinating research project looking at the archives of correspondence with very early transatlantic missionaries.


Bray Day brings together not only staff members from SPCK and USPG, but also SPCK members and supporters. Invitation to this annual event, alongside many other benefits are included as part of a SPCK membership for just £60 per year. Find out how you can become a SPCK member here >>
