Now, we know it's only September but we're thinking ahead to our Christmas Fair....

We want it to be a successful fundraiser and a fun afternoon for all, but we NEED YOUR HELP!

If you can donate a tombola/raffle prize we would be so grateful!
Everything at these events is donated, including cakes and refreshments (mostly by the same few parishioners) so that it costs the church nothing.
The more people who help will keep the cost down for everybody!

We are also hoping to do a "Mystery Prize" stall where all prizes are wrapped up and you pay £1 to choose a parcel. So we are looking for people who are willing to buy a small gift and bring it to church ready wrapped 🎁

Donations can be dropped off at church before/after our Wednesday evening or Sunday morning services anytime from now until the week before at the latest please. This year's Christmas Fair will be on the 28th November.
Watch this space for the event page....

Thanks in advance for your support! 😃🙏

Would anyone be willing to donate a raffle prize to Florence House (Porthill Bank)?
Any contribution(s) toward their regular fundraising events is immensely helpful. These funds support activities and treats for their residents and they really do go above and beyond! (My Nan is a resident there - Kerry, Treasurer of St. Andrew's)
If you can pop in with anything you're willing to donate I'm sure they will be gratefully received!
TIA 🙏
