A chance to do something for the least of Christ's brethren



The Good Counsel Network need some things for the expectant mothers they have helped to be mothers, and for the babies that they have helped to see the light of day.

You know the score - get something from the Amazon wishlist, offer up the act of charity to Our Blessed Lord: they get anything from soft wipes to washing machines and you get grace as well, together with an increased prospect of Our Lord saying "I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me."

Every item on their wishlist is sold by a third-party website (i.e., it doesn't seem possible to purchase the item through Amazon and have it sent to the Good Counsel Network). It appears that they've associated a shipping address with the wishlist (15, Maple Grove, Kingsbury,​ LONDON, NW9 8RD) that you could use at the 3rd-party stores, but whether those stores will readily ship a purchase to London made with a US-based credit card with a different billing address remains to be seen.

If you have some mechanism for communicating with the Good Counsel Network, could you perhaps suggest that they register for some items sold on Amazon.com (or by an Amazon.com marketplace merchant)? This would make it much easier for people to contribute.

Thanks for pointing that out Josh. We'll add some goods sold on amazon.com. God bless, Clare

Is it possible to purchase the items required from any shop and just send it to the address via a delivery company?

Delia said...

Checkout asks for a telephone no. for the delivery address, but none supplied. So stuck!

Fr Tim Finigan said...

Regina - yes, certainly you could send things to that address from any supplier and they would be much appreciated.

Others - sorry that you found problems

Good Counsel said...

Sorry Delia, and to anyone who has experienced blips. Not all items ordered seem to require a phone number so we were not aware of the requirement. 07795205117 is the best number to give as a delivery phone number. Also, it has proven impossible to add items from amazon.com. To do that I think we have to set up a wishlist on amazon.com itself, unless anyone knows different. Though we welcome any similar items to those we have selected from the wishlist, so you can purchase items wherever you wish, and we are happy to accept second hand items if fully functional. The address is: 15 Maple Grove, London, NW9 8RD, ENGLAND. Many thanks and God bless, Clare
