CHRISTMAS SHOE BOX
APPEAL
We hope to fill 100 boxes with toys, household products and gifts for children and families in some of the poorest countries in Europe (Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova and Romania). In many cases the children that receive these gifts, live in very poor conditions. These boxes bring them so much happiness and show that we care! Click the link below for more details. Please deliver your boxes to church by 4.00pm on Wednesday 10th December
