TEAMS 4U SHOEBOXES

Thank you to those of you that have been donating to the charity all year by leaving your empty shoe boxes and stationary etc for me to take to the warehouse.

October is now the time that you can be making your own shoe boxes if you wish.

If you would like to donate towards the ready-made shoe boxes by myself the donation amount towards the cost of the items is £4.50 for a full box meeting all the criteria.

Please see Denise Langridge on a Saturday morning coffee or myself for more details.

We will be happy to show you the pre made boxes.

The Shoeboxes will be collected at the service on Sunday 3rd November and taken off to the depot ready to be sent out in December.

Many thanks for your continued support of our campaign.

Sue Burton.

MEETING OF THE LOGIC FOUNDING ASSEMBLY

On Thursday 17th October 2024, at 7pm, a meeting will be held at St Mary’s on the Sea Church, Heneage Road, Grimsby DN32 9DZ of the Logic Founding Assembly.

After two years of preliminary work over 200 people from North East Lincolnshire will gather to found a new organisation called LOGIC to represent our area at all levels when decisions are made that will affect the people of our area. This will include housing issues, planning and development, opportunities for jobs, training and education, policing, youth opportunities and any other issues which will affect the quality of life in our area. Too often decisions are made where we never get the opportunity be listened to

Attending this meeting will be members from all Faith groups including our Scartho Methodist Church, representatives from Schools and Colleges, Members of Parliament and Local Government, Unions , Health and Care Workers , Employers and all voluntary organisations.

This is an opportunity to get involved as Church Members and work for the benefit of our Community

Most of our Church leadership team will be attending as we feel we should be involved as a Church but we would welcome any members to come along and catch the vision for this Group to work to improve our Community.

A Form is on the Church Notice Board for you to sign if you are willing and able to come along. If you need transport please speak to one of the leadership team and help will be provided.

Many Thanks,

Brian Evans.
