Additional Notice from our friends at the Foodbank:

LATEST FOODBANK NEEDS

Dear Friends Thanks as always for your wonderful support. Due to the economic situation, we have a lot more clients, many of whom are working and still finding it hard to make ends meet and at the same time we are not receiving as many food donations as we did in recent times. It has therefore been necessary for us to purchase items in order to keep our shelves from being empty. This is unprecedented, and is not necessarily sustainable, so we would be grateful if you could spread the word on our behalf; just a couple of extra items will make a vast difference to us and our clients.

 

Here is an update of the items which are most needed: GENERALLY NEEDED • Tinned tomatoes • Pasta Sauces (in jars) • Tinned Tuna/Sardines/Mackerel • Tinned Spaghetti • Tinned Potatoes • Breakfast Cereals • Longlife Semi-Skimmed Milk • Longlife Soya or Oat Milk • Tinned Vegetable Soup • Dry RIce • Small jars regular coffee • Baby wipes • Toothpaste • Teabags • Dog Treats • Small Bottle or Cartons of Squash/Juice

 

In our prayers, we continue to hold the following before God:

 from Falmouth: - we pray for, Michael Bradley, Anne & Barry Libby & Family, Sheila Finch & family, Gwen Mason, Moira, Ray Baker, John Cotterell, the Brokenshire Family, Daphne Rundle, Barbara Toyne, Pauline & Peter Cocks, Dorothy Penman, Gwen Dunstan, Gill Wilkinson, and the residents and staff of care homes, especially Langholme and the folk at Abbeyfield.

Pastoral Contact:   for May is Pauline  and for June is Jeanette

Thinking of you and missing you at church: Emma, Bradley & CJ  Brokenshire

Well B-Lines are a series of insect pathways around the UK linking existing wildlife areas together.
