Celebrating Communities Darlington have organised a get together in support of our Muslim brothers and sisters in New Zealand and across the world following the New Zealand tragedy.They will be meeting at 1215 for a 1230 start next to the Market Cross in Darlington on Monday 25th March.Please notify as many people as you can and do try to come along.It is always difficult finding a time to suit everyone but they understand that our Mayor, Cllr Veronica Copeland, has cancelled an engagement to be with them, and they will have the MD of the council Mr Paul Wildsmith standing with them also. If you are able to attend, please do.
It's only January and we're already thinking about Christmas. Last year we helped tell the Christmas story to over 700 6 and 7 year olds as they went on The Christmas Journey. This year we want to tell it to even more children and are asking for volunteers. The Christmas Journey this year will be on 28/29th Nov, and 2nd-6th December. We don't expect people to be available for every single day. If you can only help for one morning on one day, we'd still love for you to volunteer. A lot of the new volunteers from last year are already looking forward to this year's journey.If you, or someone you know, would like to help, or even if you just want to know more about what the Christmas Journey is, come along to St. Matthew and St Luke's on Jan 29th at 7:30pm.You are NOT committing yourself to doing anything by coming along.
