Foodbank A very big ‘thank you’ to everyone for both goods and monetary gifts, donated to

Worcester Foodbank. Our ongoing support is greatly appreciated as demand is very high.

We will go again in the week beginning the 16^th December and take some things ready

for the Christmas distribution. Last year, during December, the Foodbank marked its busiest

month since it opened in 2012. Grahame Lucas, manager, said: “Despite the unwavering

support of the local community, the charity is also spending around £5,000 a week to boost

stock levels at its Lowesmoor warehouse as it tries to keep pace with demand, and has also

had to bolster its team of volunteers. ”These are the items on their 2024 Christmas

shopping list, if you are able to contribute.

Many thanks for your continued support Gill

Flower Rota Please sign up on the list at the back of the church or contact Margaret Hughes if you would like to go on the rota for 2025 by 15^th Dec. Please don’t feel you have to do an elaborate arrangement, there are a variety of vases in the Messy Kitchen.

Refreshments Rota Please see Gill if you would like to help serve refreshments after a service.

Please let her know if you prefer to serve after a morning or evening service.

The more people who put their names down on these rotas the more the load is shared.

Thank you to everyone who has provided

 flowers and refreshments during the year.

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace,

good will toward men. Luke 2:14
