The Leeds South & East Food Bank: What's Needed in September
The Leeds South & East Food Bank continues to be in urgent need of donations of food to help feed those in most need. In particular at the moment they are asking for UHT milk, biscuits, custard, cooking sauces and tinned or packet mashed potatoes.
If you are able, you can donate by picking one of these items up in your weekly shop and dropping it in the box at the back of the church. You can find other ways to help, including donating money or your time, on their website at wkrk.uk/fbd. If you need the help of a foodbank yourself, see wkrk.uk/fbh.
Christmas Cakes
We are looking ahead to our Christmas Fair on 29 November where, as usual, there will be a Christmas Cake stall. We are looking for donations of the following ingredients so that the baking can commence: mixed dried fruit, ground almonds, medium/large eggs, self-raising flour, dark brown sugar, marzipan and icing. There is a box at the back of church for your donations. Thank you for your generosity.
Harvest lunch
Next Sunday 5 October
St Mary's Church Whitkirk Community Centre
Our Harvest Festival will be taking place this year on Sunday 5 October and will be followed, as usual, by our Harvest Lunch. Join us for a wonderful feast with friends as we give thanks for all that God provides for us. £10 for adults, £5 for children. Bar open. Tickets can be purchased in the Community Centre after today’s service. Vegan and gluten-free options will be available.
Songs of Praise: Whitkirk's Top Ten Hymns
Next Sunday 5 October at 6.00 pm
St Mary's Church, Whitkirk
On the same day as the Harvest Lunch, we will be holding a Songs of Praise service in lieu of our usual Choral Evensong. There will be a chance to vote for your favourite hymn and to see if it makes the Top Ten which we will sing on the day. Today is the last day you can vote, so be sure to either pop your vote in the box at the back of the church or drop a comment on our Facebook page. One vote per person only, please!
We will also be looking for a few volunteers to say why they chose a particular hymn. If you would be willing to do this on the day, please tick the box on the voting form.
Parish Pilgrimage to Ripon Cathedral
Saturday 1 November
Another date for your diary. On 1 November we will be holding a parish pilgrimage to Ripon Cathedral. The theme of the day is ‘Treasures Untold’, and this will involve a coach to Ripon, refreshments on arrival, a guided pilgrimage, some quiet time for reflection, and a sung Eucharist to conclude. There will also be some free time to explore Ripon afterwards.
