Despite the ongoing restrictions, St Peter’s church will be holding its Harvest Festival service on Sunday 11th October at 10am. It will look different to previous years, as we won’t be able to have as many people in the congregation, and we are still not permitted to sing. Even so it is an opportunity to thank God for his gifts to us all, and our many blessings.
We are unable to hold our community harvest lunch this year, because of the social distancing guidelines. However, any fresh food that is donated will be used by our senior citizens’ Tuesday lunch club, and any remaining tinned or dried food will be donated to either CAP Care in Wakefield which provides meals to the homeless, or St Catherine’s church food bank.
We will be serving refreshments after the service; people will be served where they are sat, rather than having to go up to the kitchen counter.
