34 people came together to give thanks to God for His blessings on us all. Thanks to all who decorated the church for the Harvest Thanksgiving service. We also had the benefit of the display made by donations from Nocton Community Primary School to Lincoln Community Larder - much appreciated by us and by the people who will benefit. The collection at the service raised around £50 for the church and another £50 for WaterAid - an international charity that transforms lives by improving access to safe water, hygiene and sanitation.
Following the service was the (in)famous Harvest Supper. This was greatly enjoyed by all who attended. Thanks to the fundraising team for all the hard work behind the scenes, all who helped in any way especially to all those who did the catering, Chris for the potatoes and the wine, and to Ted & Ian who unblocked the sinks at the end! A special mention to Rev Les Whitfield for selling off the left over food at the end, including an already open bag of salad!!
The Harvest Supper raised £400 for church funds. A massive thank you to all who attended the service and/or the supper - see you again next year!
