Harvest 2010
This year our Harvest Thanksgiving Service will be on Sunday 10 October at 11am. There are two ways that you can give a harvest gift, either by puting a cash donation in a Lodging House Mission envelope or by bringing something for the harvest display (especially tins, breakfast cereal, soup cereal, biscuits, dried fruit, rice, sugar, tea or coffee). The church will be open from 11.00am till 1.00pm to receive gifts for the harvest display. Anyone wishing to help create the harvest display please be at the church at 1.00pm.
After the Harvest Service we will need as many people as possible to please stay behind to distribute the harvest gifts.
