As is our custom at All Souls we continue to collect items in our pantry basket. Many people continue to struggle throughout the year and by our donations of goods, we can put a smile on faces in our community.
In addition to supporting BayCISS financially, All Souls also collect groceries each week for BayCISS to distribute to those in need.
We welcome you to Donate non-perishable food items into the Pantry Baskets in the church foyer.
Each Christmas we partner with BayCISS to provide Chrismtas goods to include in hamper baskets prepared for those in need at this festive time.
As always, we ask the items are non-perishable food items.
Christmas goods can be left up until Sunday 18th December 2022. (Extended from previously 4th December cut-off).
