We believe that no person should be without food at Christmas and so we’d ask you to consider donating a shoebox worth of food to The Olive Branch this Christmas. The Olive Branch is a Lancaster based food bank which serves the poor and homeless.
St John’s Church Ellel and Lancaster University Chaplaincy are local drop off points for donations. Any donations you have you can drop off at either locations and we will pass them to The Olive Branch HQ.
The Olive Branch are asking for all items to be donated by Sunday 12th December at the latest, to give them a chance to sort and distribute food.
Items they are collecting are:
Oil
Mince Pies
Christmas Cake
Christmas Biscuits
Tins of sweets

Chocolate oranges

Wherever you find yourself this Christmas, I pray God grants you peace and rest ahead of the year to come.
