On Sunday December 4, you are cordially invited to bring your teddy to church. St Mary’s are holding a special Family Toy Service at 10:30am. Please bring new unwrapped toys as well, to be donated to Family Support Work who will distribute them to families in the local area. It is a wonderful way of making a child’s Christmas special because many families are struggling just to make ends meet at the moment and Christmas is an added burden instead of a joyous occasion.
