CAP Hamper Packing
At St. Mary's we are partnering with CAP and Chipping Norton Community Church to help families who are struggling with poverty and debt.
Since Christmas is coming, the CAP team wanted to do something extra special for those families, to bring some Christmas blessing and show God's love, so they asked the congregation to donate items to make into hampers for distributing locally.
During the session they turned this abundance of gifts from the congregation...
...into 24 lovely hampers!
A message from Athene, our Debt Centre Manager:
"Mark and I would like to express heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated gifts for the CAP Hamper appeal. 24 boxes were filled to the brim and we pray that your generosity will be a blessing on each home this Christmas.
Thank you also to everyone who helped with the wrapping and packing."
Our brilliant CAP Hamper packing team:
So many people in our community feel the weight of debt, and we are passionate about helping to release anyone we can from a life sentence of debt and poverty. At St Mary's we are working with Christians Against Poverty to bring good news, hope and freedom. If you need support, we'd love to hear from you.
Everyone has questions about what life is all about. We believe that everyone should have a chance to share those questions, explore the Christian faith and give their point of view.
Alpha is a place where you can ask those questions in an honest, friendly and open environment. We'll be running a course again in the Autumn, but in the meantime, find out more here...
