Urgent! Food Bank Collections

Food banks across the country are facing unprecedented demand, and finding it increasingly difficult to meet the needs of such large numbers. They desperately need more in the way of food donations, and Carolyne Robinson was asked by the Hope Centre in Northampton if she could coordinate efforts here for them and for the food banks across the Northampton area with whom they are linked.   Some of our parishes have existing links with Jubilee Foodbank in Market Harborough and these will continue - they, too, have much greater need, so do think about donating to them. 

There are collection boxes in the following locations:

Marston Trussell  - Christine Otway, 9 Main St directly opposite the church hall

Sibbertoft - Sue McCrae, 42 Welland Rise St Helen’s Church porch. There will also be collection boxes out at the Saturday pop-up stalls.

Welford - Vicky Johnson, 15 Salford Close & St Mary church porch

Naseby - Village Shop
 

Lets make sure no one has to worry about food during this crisis.

"I was hungry and thirsty" said Jesus "and you fed me"

"Lord, when did we feed you?" asked the disciples.

"When you fed anyone who was hungry," replied Jesus.

CHRISTMAS 2022

CHRISTMAS TIME IS A WONDERFUL TIME FOR GENEROSITY BUT THE ONGOING SUPPORT DURING THE YEAR FROM VILLAGES SUCH AS OURS IS INVALUABLE.  CONTINUING TO SUPPORT HOPE DURING THE COURSE OF THE YEAR IS HUGELY APPRECIATED.

A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN SO GENEROUS OVER THE LAST YEAR. 

BEST WISHES
