Mini Vinnies Carol sing along

Posted on January 19, 2017 by Mrs B. Wright

On Sunday 18th December a group of fourteen of our Mini Vinnies joined some of the St. Peter’s to have a coffee morning, tombola cake stall, raffle and Christmas carol sing along at St Peter’s church hall after 11:00am Mass

The event raised an amazing £390. The money will be shared between Pinewood Lodge Care Home for elderly people with dementia and the Sudan Baby Project. We believe that all children have the right to life Article 6 and our fundraising will really help babies in the Sudan to live

many thanks for all of your generosity.
