Blanket News!

2011-11-12T02:17:00.001-08:00

Blanket News!

Our blankets were collected on Wednesday morning. The driver had travelled through the night from Kent, to arrive at Church by 8.30am so thank you for all the prayers for safe transportation. In total there were 82 blankets and 9 small baby size ones. As the primary focus for SMILE at this time is shoeboxes, they ask also for a minimum of 50 shoe boxes to make it worthwhile for the lorry to travel to us. As a result of the Kosova Kafe and kind donations from various people we were able to fill 35 boxes from Fellside which together with boxes collected from 2 New- castle schools meant that we were also able to send 124 shoe boxes together with various hats scarves and jumpers. This is an excellent result as it has in no way detracted from the excellent work this church does in supporting Samaritans Purse.

As to the future, we keep knitting if people are happy to do this (and we already have 1 blanket to add to 2012's total.) If you know of anyone who has been knit- ting for us, then please do tell them this latest news and thank them for all they are doing. If you feel that a thank you card from the Church would be appropriate then please have a word with Jean who will supply this.

Prayer Meeting – TONIGHT Tuesday 9th August 7.30pm

2011-08-09T05:45:00.001-07:00

After seeing the terrible scenes of violence and destruction on our TV screens, we feel it right that we open the church tonight at 7.30pm to come together to pray. There are many people in the community who feel that prayer is needed for this, so please invite anybody you know who may want to join us. Also, if you have contact with any church friends who are not on the internet, please pass the word around. The meeting will go on until 10, but feel free to come and go as you wish.

Kosova Kafe

2011-07-23T03:04:00.000-07:00

Kosova Kafe will open again in the autumn, the first date being on Friday Septem-ber 23rd. As before the Kafe will be open between 5.30 and 6.30 Drop in any time in that hour for a 2 course evening meal and treat yourself to a break from the cooking and the washing up!! We ask for a minimum donation of £3.50 and the money raised will be used to buy items to fill shoeboxes to be sent out to Kosova and other Balkan countries via SMILE. By raising money in this way we, as a Church, will be able to support SMILE in all the charity does in supporting needy children whilst still providing shoeboxes for Samaritans Purse as we have done in the past. The sign up sheet (booking is essential please) for your meal will appear on the notice board in the middle of August so look out for it. The main course on this occasion will be corned beef pie. A full menu will be included on the sign up sheet and there will be a vegetarian option.

Creations

2011-04-28T14:42:00.001-07:00

The next Creations is on Friday 13th May when we would like to do some can-dle making. The idea we have is to pour the melted wax into a tea cup. This style of candle has been seen in Laura Ashley for around £14-99. We are now asking if anyone has any tea cups and saucers they no longer want. Could you please put them in the box in the vestibule. We would be very grateful for any donations. Any ladies who would like to come along to Creations and do this candle making are welcome to bring a favourite cup and saucer or any cups and saucers they have kept and no longer need. Thank you in advance for your help. Claire Morland.
