CHRISTMAS SERVICE TIMES LOVE IN A BOX THANK YOU by Carol Ibbotson A huge thank you to everyone who supported the Parish of Fawley ‘Love in a Box’ event during October 2021. In spite of restrictions due to COVID-19 again this year, we managed to ll 83 shoeboxes with Christmas gi s for children in Eastern Europe. e success was due to the many people who wrapped boxes and gave donations of money and gi s. Once again, we were amazed at the wonderful amount of knitted hats, scarves and gloves. ank you also to Manor Church of England Infant School in Holbury, who contributed a further 40 boxes. e boxes were collected from us during November by the Mustard Seed Christian Charity, who organise the event. ey will be delivered to disadvantaged children in Moldova, in time for Christmas and will bring much happiness at this special time of year. ank you.
