Keeping the food cupboard stocked at<br />
In Touch is a constant battle, which is<br />
why the In Touch team are delighted<br />
that <strong>Lansdowne</strong>’s Harvest collection<br />
will be donated to us. In Touch<br />
provides food, friendship, comfort and<br />
clothing for those in need and is based<br />
in St Augustin’s Church hall. We are<br />
open Tuesdays and Friday, 11:45am to<br />
1:30pm.<br />
We begin each lunch with scripture<br />
and prayer, which is heard in<br />
respectful silence. We prepare hot<br />
food for over 70 guests and endeavour<br />
to provide takeaways. Nando’s<br />
supplies our chicken, however we rely<br />
on your donations to make the meals<br />
complete and nutritious. The typical<br />
meals we serve are roast chicken,<br />
chicken pie, chicken stew, chilli<br />
chicken and chicken curry with a side<br />
of vegetables and fresh potatoes.<br />
Suggested donations include tinned<br />
goods such as: tomatoes, baked beans,<br />
sweet corn, carrots, garden peas and<br />
soup.<br />
We also require coffee, tea, sugar,<br />
biscuits, squash, and condiments.<br />

It’s time to light up<br />
the darkness!<br />
On Friday the 26 <strong>October</strong> we will be holding our annual ‘Light Party’ (a Christian<br />
alternative to Halloween). It starts at 5.30pm and ends at 7.30pm and is for the whole family!<br />
Last year was our biggest ever with approximately 150 people attending, so this year our<br />
ambition is even bigger! We will be using the whole church and it will be decorated with fun<br />
lighting effects. For the first time there will be a disco, and show time, plus a bouncy castle,<br />
UV face painting, crafts and games!<br />
Parents/carers do need to attend and supervise their children, but we warmly invite all ages<br />
to enjoy. There will be a tea to end the event, and all children will receive a goody bag. The<br />
whole thing is absolutely free, but please register via the website (lansdownechurch.uk/<br />
lightparty) and come brightly dressed ready to party!<br />
