CAN YOU HELP PLEASE?

We run a Lunch Club at Wrose Methodist Church weekly on every Wednesday.   Due to unforeseen circumstances, after Christmas we urgently need a volunteer to cook the meals in our well-appointed kitchen, with the help of other volunteers.   If you are enthusiastic about cooking and love to feed a good number of people, then this might just be what you’re looking for!

The job entails planning menus for each week, buying the ingredients the day before (quantity dependent upon numbers booking a lunch) and cooking a main course and a dessert on the Wednesday morning.  Numbers attending range between 15 and 22.   Lunch is served between 12 noon and 1 p.m.   We are willing to discuss expenses if a volunteer has to travel any distance.  

We also require volunteers to help in the kitchen, and generally with the setting up of the tables, putting out crockery and cutlery, etc. and serving the meals.

If more than one volunteer were to come forward, for either job, then a rota could be organised so that the commitment would only be fortnightly etc. if weekly is too much.   So please don’t hesitate to let us know if you can offer anything at all!

We would be really grateful if you could help us, as we consider the Lunch Club to be an important service to the elderly in Wrose, offering a friendly atmosphere, good quality food at a reasonable price, interesting people to talk to and various activities throughout the year.

If you can see your way clear to volunteering – if only for once a month! – then please contact us - wrose@bradfordnorth.org.uk

Thank you.

D ISSUE 16 OCTOBER 2012 ear Friends How many times have you heard people say in your church ‘Well, I didn’t know about that!’  Quickly followed by, ‘Well, if you read the notices …’ Communication within churches can be wonderful, it can be a little frustrating and it can be never quite what we had hoped.  The same is true across the Circuit, and very soon we will be reviewing methods and means of communication.  Part of this review may include looking at ‘The Link’ and ‘Outlook’ in the light of our focus upon Mission.  For example, it may be that we move more towards what has happened and how it worked to encourage churches to think about the stories that they have to share, rather than being a notice sheet of things to come. Which leads me to ask, have we ever wondered about who it is we are trying to communicate to, and about what?  For example, there have been many adverts in ‘ The Link’ about coffee mornings and cake....

Photographs of families were shown to each other, small gifts were exchanged. Then they played a game of FOOTBALL! Just for that day it was PLAY not WAR!
