The Leeds South & East Food Bank: What's Needed in October
The Leeds South & East Food Bank continues to be in need of donations to help those in most need. In particular at the moment they are asking for UHT milk, tinned fruit,** custard**, cooking sauces, biscuits and cereal.
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.
Do you know someone who could use a 'Listening Ear'?
Following discussions about how we can best offer pastoral support to those in need from our congregation and the broader parish, we have established a group of volunteers who are prepared to act as a ‘listening ear’ for those unable (permanently or temporarily) to attend church. Volunteers will phone those who would like someone to talk to for a chat once a week or so. If you would benefit from this, or if you would like to nominate someone you know, please contact Claire ([email protected]; 0113 531 8141) and she will provide more details.
Memorial Service
Next Sunday 25 October from 4.00 pm until 7.00 pm
St Mary's Church, Whitkirk
Our next memorial service will be held on 25 October at 4.00 pm with refreshments served after the service in the Community Centre. You are invited to come and remember those you have loved but see no more, whether your loss was recent or happened some time ago. Light a candle, pause, remember, and know that you are not alone.
Sung Eucharist for Remembrance Sunday
Sunday 8 November from 9.30 am until 11.15 am
Just a reminder that our service on Remembrance Sunday will start at 9.30 am rather than the usual 10.00 am to allow us to get to the war memorial on Selby Road for 11.00 am.
