Your support is needed!
As you know the Church is supporting the building
of a girls’ dormitory at the Matjinge High School in
Zimbabwe and aims to raise £4,000 in 2015
(currently we have already reached the £1,500 mark).
There are Coffee Mornings already planned on the
3rd Saturday of each month and we are asking each
Church group to organise a fund raiser during the
year which I hope you will enthusiastically support.
However if any member of the congregation is
willing to organise a fundraiser themselves, no
matter how big or small, that would be greatly
appreciated. We are particularly looking for ideas
that would engage a wider group of people than
those within the Church so we are not asking the
same people for money.
In order to coordinate ideas could you please get in
touch with me so events can be spread throughout
the year and not duplicated. Information about the
project is on display at the front of Church but I also
have an information pack if that would be helpful.
If you have any further questions or are simply
brimming with ideas then get in touch on 0113
2866387 or email me at tim.bean@btinternet.com
Thanks Tim
