Harvest Giving Information
We will be celebrating Harvest to THANK GOD for his many blessings.
As a token of our thanks we’ll be collecting dry and tinned goods to donate to wonderful local charities like the Stroud Foodbank.
The Foodbank does fantastic work providing a few day’s supplies to local people and families who suddenly find themselves in a crisis. They can’t deal with fresh produce, so the most useful things we can provide are:
Top 5 Shopping List
Tinned Ham & Corned Beef
Fruit Squash
Coffee
Shampoo & Conditioner
Laundry Liquid
Financial donations are also always welcomed by the Foodbank if you prefer. Please give generously
Baptism Information
