Harvest Festival at St Mary’s Church – 29th September 10am

Posted on by Judy French

All are very welcome to come and celebrate Harvest Festival at St Mary’s Church at 10am on Sunday 29th September.

We are having two collections:
One is a collection of tools which we will send to TWAM (Tools with a Mission)
where they will be refurbished, sorted into trade kits and sent overseas to Sub-
Saharan Africa to help transform the lives of the recipients. Please leave them in
the church or contact Mary (810504).
The other is to raise funds for the people of Slatyne in eastern Ukraine, close to
Kharkiv and the Russian border. Over the last few months we have been
developing links with the Our Lady of Kazan church in Slatyne. Due to recent
extensive bombing there is a desperate shortage of transport in the region. We
are hoping to raise enough to buy a van to distribute aid throughout the town.
There will be a presentation about this during the 10am service on Sunday.
We raised £150 at Font Café on 19th September for Slatyne and will be giving the
proceeds from Font Café on 26th September as well.
