The “Spring Tea and Bake Sale” which was held at the Church of the Holy Spirit this past Saturday was deemed a huge success by the organizers.
Those serving were pleased with the attendance of so many people from across the district.
Those in charge of the bake sale table would also like to thank everyone from the community who contributed baking.
Your help and support contributed greatly to the success of the event.
Funds raised will go to the Mission and Service Committee for use in the community and beyond.
