Just 17 days to go until the return of our 'Countdown to Christmas'!
Saturday 12th December - join us from noon until 3pm for lunch, for drinks, for cakes, to play games, to do fun activities, to get some amazing Christmas shopping in and even see the 'Big Guy in Red'!
How can you help... Can you donate a bottle of something? ..from wine to lemonade, from coke to whisky... any new, unopened bottles help us make a fantastic and popular 'Bottle Stall', run as always by our wonderful PTFA!
Please bring any donations of bottles, chocs, new gifts for our prize stalls to the presbytery for storage.
Many thanks! From the Parish Social Committee
SOUP RUN REQUEST
Please can you help increase the stock of home-made soup for the freezer?
If you can, please contact the parish office by email and we will put you in touch with Maeve who stores our soup for us, so you can organise delivery to her in Downend.
Tips: please don’t make it too thick/chunky/hearty as it can be difficult to pour when out on the soup run. Please put the soup in plastic milk cartons with a gap to allow for expansion when frozen. Please label and date the carton.
Many thanks.
