Hello, my brothers and sisters in Christ. Cast your minds back to our Harvest Service last year, remember the delicious soup and bread? Do you also remember the abundance of food, toiletries and cleaning products that were collected and then donated to the always encouraging Victory Outreach team.

Maurice Jones [administrator] wrote a wonderful letter thanking all involved [that's you!!] expressing how many '' tears of joy and happiness'' were shared after being shown such generosity.

Dinas Powys Baptist Church has committed to providing food parcels to the Victory Outreach team on a quarterly basis. The first will be given when the team come back to share their testimonies and God's amazing Grace on Sunday 30 May 2010.

It would be wonderful if we gave twice as much as last time for them to take home. Please have a look at the list overleaf. The young men and women are so genuinely grateful for everything they receive, so let's come together to show them how much God loves them.

'' A generous man will himself be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor'', Proverbs 22 verse 9.

To God be all the Glory,

God bless you all,

Rachel L
