I know it's early, but you may have heard folks talk about 'Operation Christmas Child', but what is it? It's an opportunity to fill a shoe box with small gifts and help to bring some happiness into the life of a child this Christmas. This year the boxes will go to poor children in Romania. Leaflets giving details of what items are appropriate, are available in the church and you can bring your box to the church too. This is being organised by Ann Sharpe of the Roman Catholic Church in East Leake. In spite of the 'credit crunch', I'm sure people will be able join forces to fill a box, if not fill a box of their own. Please help this worthy cause. Our young people are already gathering items for their boxes.
