CHRISTMAS CARDS
December 16, 2011
One of the Youth Organisations is to create a Christmas Card again this year so look out for it appearing in the foyer in the near future. To save giving all your friends in the church a card, why not leave a message on this one and donate what you would have spent on cards in the box. The donations will go to the Old Folk’s Home in Bishkek so you will be helping a very worthwhile case and saving the environment at the same time.
