A local family have asked St. Aelred's SVP if we can provide any garden furniture or outside toys. A 4 year old boy would dearly love a sandpit with a cover, or other toys to play with in the garden. If you are able to help, please call the SVP on 07311 214364. Thank you
As we enter the academic, exam season, we want to wish all our students every blessing and every success. As you prepare and sit each exam, may you know God’s presence beside you, His wisdom within you, and His peace surrounding you.
Food Bank: A TIN A WEEK: Our SVPs collect food for the hungry, can you spare a tin a week for this, also some toiletries? These can be left in the boxes at the back of our churches. The Lord tells us to feed the hungry, so thank you all for your donations which are sincerely appreciated.
