Harvest Thanksgiving 2014
Thank you to those who
donated so generously
to the Foodbank as part
of our Harvest Thanksgiving again this year.
Such donations are making a real difference to local people who are
struggling at this present time.
Thanks too for those who have contributed to the Bishop’s Harvest Appeal—to date £200 has been donated
from St Aidan’s with the St George’s
donations to follow. This year the
Bishop’s Appeal, SECURING FUTURES
TOGETHER’ will help two projects one in El Salvador where floods
wiped out the entire harvest, and the
other in the northern Philippines to
provide education and reconciliation
in areas where tribal warfare has
created destruction and poverty.
