Amazing - just amazing. It's only 2 weeks since our Harvest Festival foodbank collection, and Upchurch, you are still making my heart tingle with pride. Your kindness - well, what can I say. Let the pictures speak for themselves.
This is Warehouse Coordinator Richard Divers' car. You filled his 7-seater both with the back seats folded and his boot.
Bless you all for your kindness ❤️
And I'm throwing in a photo of our jolly group at 'A Cuppa and a Chat' - there were others, but they left before I took the photo.
Don't forget we have Warmer Place this Friday in Upchurch Village Hall from 11:00am until 1:00pm. Anyone and everyone is welcome. All hot drinks and snacks are free. Come and enjoy a warm place with some company. Come and play a game. Have a chat. A warm welcome is waiting for you. Hosted by St Mary's and Uplift.
Next month I will be gratefully collecting your Swale Foodbank donations at the bus stop opposite the church again on Wednesday the 2nd of November, between 10:30am and 11:30am - Thank you.
This will now be on the first Wednesday of the month. Along with 'A Cuppa and a Chat' in the Lady Chapel from 10:00am until 12:00pm. Followed by a time of prayer for the village until 12:30pm.
