Items needing a home.... 

lectern.jpgGood News Bible - we have a large Lectern Bible plus 14 pew copies in leather covers which need a new home. Not in great condition but could be useful to someone. 
We also have a lectern and matching seat which are surplus to requirements. A donation is invited for these - see photo. Lectern probably needs fixing to the floor to be safe.

Help! Camper Van Needed for Soul Survivor.

We are part of the Catering Team for YFC's trip to Soul Survivor at Shepton Mallet this August, cooking for 100 plus young people. We now find ourselves with no accommodation (just for us to sleep in - there will be no cooking done in the camper van) and wonder if there is someone who would lend us their van from any time on Sunday 5th August to late on Sunday 12th August.

If you can help or would like to discuss it further, please contact us on 730640 or email sherwoodfamily@hotmail.co.uk
