How can churches and Christian organizations consider the connection between their faith and practice in relation to farmed animal welfare? Our major project report is a great place to start. Download it or request a free print copy here: https://t.co/ZVwWfv6pTH

@BeCreatureKind @NRPEorg @CreationJustice @alliancebaptist If your church or organisation would be interested in adopting a similar statement, CEFAW would be glad to work with you to achieve that.

[CEFAW @CEFAWproj]

As a result of exploring ways to take forward CEFAW’s work in the US, we’re delighted that a collaboration between @BeCreatureKind, @NRPEorg, and @CreationJustice led to an @alliancebaptist statement on Christian Ethics and Animal Agriculture, linked here: https://t.co/IEX9tTzYuF

Do you know how pigs are killed for food in the UK? This week, Claire Colley and @Andrew_Wasley wrote for the @guardian about @joeyCarbstrong’s video footage of pigs being stunned with carbon dioxide, the most common stunning method. It’s appalling. 1/10

A great day filming with ⁦@Canonjane⁩ ⁦@DLClough⁩ & ⁦@SaightonPrimary⁩ for ⁦@CEFAWproj⁩. Thank you ⁦@ChesterCath⁩ for being so welcoming and kind.

[CEFAW @CEFAWproj]

How wonderful to hear this update about how children at @SaightonPrimary are using what they’ve learned from the CEFAW project about what chickens need to flourish to engage successfully with the school’s caterer!

[Saighton Church of England Primary & Pre-School @SaightonPrimary]

We presented our chef @_HutchisonCater with a handmade gift, asking him to consider using free range eggs for all of our school meals. We are delighted that he has agreed! What a wonderful piece of courageous advocacy in action @CEFAWproj @Craftivists @chesterdbe1 #gentleprotest

[Prof David Clough @dlclough.bsky.social @DLClough]

Is this is the oldest evidence of concern about cruelty to farmed animals? An Egyptian relief dated around 2000 BCE shows a cow shedding a tear that she is not able to suckle her calf (Pritchard, The Ancient NE in Pictures, 1954). 4000 years on, many more cows suffer this grief.

[Wendy Dossett 💙 @WEDossett]

A new episode of @TheREPodcast1 - this one is our friend and former @TRSChester colleague @DLClough exploring Christian ideas about animal flourishing, and their place in Christian salvation narratives. https://t.co/rHmfU35GYS

Great to see @ShocklachSchool school engaging with farmed animal welfare as part of the CEFAW Education project!

[Shocklach School @ShocklachSchool]

Mrs Gilbert is loving the opportunity to get some hand on farming experience & is learning lots from the young Shocklach farmers to help with her research for this project!

[CEFAW @CEFAWproj]

Catch up on how CEFAW has been working with RE teachers, a group of pilot schools, and academic staff at theological education institutions.
