HARVEST FESTIVAL AND Holy Cross celebration

for 3 hours
Avening Church
Avening, GL8 8NL, United Kingdom

On September 15th, we will celebrate the Feast of the Holy Cross AND Harvest, in one great swell of thanksgiving! The service will begin at 11am so that we can move on to a Bring and Share (finger foods) feast right after the service.

We are hugely fortunate to have this extra service in our parish. We do hope you will come and help make it a special day. For our Harvest giving we will be donating to the local Food Bank. They would really appreciate long-life fruit juices, sauces like mayonnaise and ketchup, tea bags, tinned fruit, tins of rice pudding, jam, multipurpose cleaning spray, and deodorant. I imagine we might see other treats on the shelves, as well.

We are looking forward to celebrating with you all. Everyone is welcome.
