Thank you all so much for surrounding Hope@Christmas with your prayers. Twenty nine parcels of Aldi vouchers, fruit and Christmas treats were safely and swiftly delivered or collected today. 

Our deliverers all reported back that the families were all extremely grateful and went out of their way to make sure that their thanks were passed on to all who contributed to 'Hope'. 

We also heard how delighted many of the children were when they saw the beautiful hampers of fruit-some reported that the children's faces lit up on seeing them.

The team would like to thank all who gave such generous financial donations , including the Parish Councils, the WI and many individuals. We also thank: Reidy's for supplying our fruit; Masons at Fosse Meadows for making 'Hope' their Christmas charity this year and the Hinckley Area Food Bank for the Christmas pudds! 

Many thanks also to our trusty deliverers .Please pray that the families feel blessed by these gifts and feel surrounded by God's love, peace and hope this Christmas time.

Di and the Hope Team
