This is a joint service with the church again which starts at 2pm. The retiring collection will be split between church funds and Martin House Hospice.
Our harvest gifts will go to the homeless charities in York as usual. Items suitable for breakfasts such as cereals, porridge, fruit juice, tea, coffee and fruit will go to Carecent who serve breakfast to the homeless. Other items such as tins or vegetables will go to Arclight, a shelter for the homeless, along with donations of warm clothes. Please bring your items into school on Thursday morning (20th October) so that we can take them along to church when we rehearse. Items can be placed in a box or loose in a bag. I know that these organisations will be very grateful.
We are looking forward to welcoming you to the service. Reverend Maxine Waller will lead Worship with school contributions that link the harvest theme to the work we will be doing in school over the next couple of weeks.
