For many years we have held a gift service on the first Sunday in December and this year we have decided to make a special Christmas Appeal for our local Aston & Nechells Foodbank.
There are lots of things that you can donate – warm hats, socks and gloves for adults and children; underwear for men; toiletries for all ages; all foodstuffs, including seasonal gifts, and particularly the tubs of chocolates which can be divided into lots of smaller bags for more people to enjoy. If in doubt, just ask us and we can make suggestions.
Thank you, as always, for your support.

Following receipt of an email that Nick Stanyon, the West Midlands URC Synod Evangalist, has sent to all churches in the Synod (21/04/20) our Minister has requested that this link should be added to the website -
christianity.org.uk/
Christianity.org.uk run by the Christian Enquiry Agency, is now an independent agency, but has long been part of Churches Together In England. Visitors to the site can read a number of well written articles or watch short video that may answer their questions, or at least peak their interest. Currently one lead article is about the coronavirus, and another about ‘what is a Christian?’ There are many more. It’s worth a browse for yourself. Visitors can then ask questions, request a free copy of Luke’s Gospel, or find a church from the site.
