The homelessness fundraising I blogged about, with cakes made by me and mum, and by our organist (mmmm...chocolate brownies.....mmmmm) raised £26.15 this time, which is AMAZING! I was so pleased! I love doing fundraising for the continuing existence of my church because it plays a very important part in my life, but doing something like this is great. A visitor from another church in the town told me that plans were being discussed about a new church building to combine the two churches who have joined together in a LEP (Local Ecumenical Partnership) in one building instead of in their current two. He told me that he had suggested adding a room on to the plans for this to house beds and a kitchen to provide temporary shelter and hot food for the homeless! Brilliant! This is the sort of thing I really wanted to get involved in, only to discover that there was hardly anything available for the homeless in this town. Fantastic news!
