We’ve had a great response to our appeal for filled shoeboxes. Members of Cornwell 0-5’s, Cool Club, GLuG and the Youth group all contributed as well as church members. In addition some people responded to the leaflets that went out with our Autumn Newsletter to all 600 homes in the area.
In all we collected 137 filled boxes; up from 75 last year! With 147 from St Catherine’s the total for the Parish was 284; up from 215 last year.
Peter and Nicky from Samaritan’s Purse arrived on Monday to collect the Shoeboxes and thanks to helpers Bill, David, and Michael we soon had the van loaded.
