Reverse Advent Calendar

We are again organizing this ministry at St. Andrew Memorial during Advent.  The idea is that instead of getting a treat of some kind from your advent calendar – you give something to those in need.  This calendar is a guide which we established after checking with the Fellowship Centre on their needs.  Bring your items to church with you on Sunday morning each week and put them under the Christmas tree.  All donations will be blessed on Christmas eve and taken down to St. Paul’s Fellowship Centre to help stock their shelves for the winter. Take part in whatever way you feel able; that can be all four weeks, for one or two weeks or whatever you feel is appropriate for you.
