Mission Group : It’s time to get those knitting needles clicking again! We have been advised by Family Works that they would really appreciate some winter knitting again. Perhaps you can help? Here are their suggestions:

• Baby Singlets
• Fingerless gloves (for children)
• Jerseys (3 – 10year olds)
• Slippers and socks – all sizes
• Cot size or single bed size blankets.

Due to the big demand for food parcels, Family Works are in need of empty egg cartons – 6’s and 12’s to refill. These can be put in the food bank box, or near by. At the moment Family Works are making up food boxes for those folk isolating from COVID. They need good used magazines to be included in the boxes. There will be a labelled carton in each church foyer for these.

Morning tea at St Stephens — we need a few more people to go on the Roster. It is a great way to get to know people. If you can, help please contact Rose at the office on ph 686 0981.
