ABOUT T.A.N.G.O.

The aim of T.A.N.G.O. is to reach out, serve and help those in need in the community and is a major part of the outreach strategy of St Marks Church in reaching the Haydock community. We are passionate about people knowing Jesus, loving each other, and caring for our community.

A Basis in Scripture

The Scriptural basis of T.A.N.G.O.is to be found in the book of Isaiah Chapter 58, for example as in ‘The Message’ version:

“What I’m interested in seeing you do is: sharing your food with the hungry, inviting the homeless poor into your homes, putting clothes on the shivering ill-clad, being available to your own families.” (v. 7)
“You’ll use the old rubble of past lives to build anew, rebuild the foundations from out of your past. You’ll be known as those who can fix anything, restore old ruins, rebuild and renovate, make the community liveable again.” (v. 12).
