Please read the piece I have written on the back of the Link about the Shelter of Hope – rather sad news I am afraid, but I have tried to set things out as I see them. What I forgot to add is that if you give money to support the Shelter you may like to pause a while until we have sorted out who we will be supporting in the future. We have the three organisations in mind but we have not yet made formal links with them. Do have a chat with me if you would like more details.
On the brighter note we had a lovely visit from Mundella School and parents this week for their Harvest Service – the children were brilliant as ever and the church looked wonderful all decorated for Harvest. Thank you to all who have helped to make this year’s Harvest celebrations so special.
