We are looking forward to our Harvest Festival at 10am this Sunday, at St Peter’s. Why not come and join us with your harvest produce, and/or gifts for the Padley Centre? (For more information, see below).
If you would like to help decorate the church, then please join us on Saturday morning from 10am.
Even if you are not able to join us on Sunday, we would love to see you on Monday in the Memorial Hall from 18:30, for our Harvest Supper. Please bring your own drinks. Val is making meat and potato pie, and we shall be following that up with crumble and cream.
Harvest Supper tickets are available from Janet in the shop, or from Martin C (529).
This year, Stuart Chambers has kindly agreed to auction the harvest produce. All funds raised from the evening will go to the Padley Centre in Derby, which provides both a Day Centre and Direct Access Hostel.
You can also help the Padley Centre by donating items which will be of use to them. They can accept gifts of anything except pillows, duvets, electrical items and furniture. At the moment, they are particularly keen to receive any of the following items:
* toiletries (especially razors and sanitary towels)
* clothing
* textiles
* mugs
* cutlery
These can be left in church, or brought to the hall on Monday evening. If they need collecting, then please let Helen P know (362),
THANK YOU!
