PORTHLEVEN
Firstly, when brought up at our Autumn business meeting 2023, Porthleven Ecclesia agreed it would be good to take an active part in this year’s project, rather than just donate financially.
NOTTINGHAM
On Sunday 17th of December, some of the brothers and sisters at Nottingham Jarvis Avenue church were involved in preparing and filling socks for the homeless. Twelve pairs of socks were filled in total, with such items as hand gel, tissues, vitamins, toothbrushes etc, including a £5 Greggs voucher. We thought this was also an opportunity to preach the word of God, so cards were also made by sister Faith, which displayed a verse from the bible, and also included a card advertising the bible companion app. These were then taken out into the centre of Nottingham, midweek, and distributed to the homeless. We met some lovely homeless people, one of which had attended a Christian rehabilitation centre for addictions and now seemed to be in a better place. We were able to talk to him about our church at Jarvis Avenue. Another, had been on the streets, homeless, for a year, whilst another was telling us about how he had a son, and spent some time talking to my son Rhydian, who is only 9. All in all, each and every one of the pairs of socks was gratefully received.
