Today is our Harvest Sunday. All donations will be given to the Crypt. In preparation for the winter months they want to buy 21 new z-beds for people who can’t get a bed elsewhere in the city, so monetary donations are greatly appreciated. If children would like to bring something, bags of sweets are great as every client gets a welcome pack on their z-bed with a few sweets in. Toiletries and men’s underwear would also be welcomed, and there will be a chance to bring your offering to the front during the service.
