Making Christmas Cards for the fund

Here is a display of cards and calendars I made today to sell for the Rainforest Fund.

And look - in Yorkshire we have snowy weather today!!

Some are from photos of a collection of nativity scenes that were on display at St John's Church last year.

Some are from flowers from our area including Purple Saxifrage, Mountain Pansy and Bloody Cranesbill.

Orders taken! £1-50 per card including postage.

Display in the Church Hall

We are fortunate in having a good church hall. It is used by many different groups during the week.

I made a display about the Rainforest Fund Project. On Tue 8 January I put it on the other half of the board used by Rumpus, the After School Club.

It shows how much has been donated. £50 so far! By one generous lady.

Before Christmas I had started visiting members of our congregation, asking for ideas and ensuring that there would be support for the project. I visited about 15 people - but it was really encouraging when one of the first people donated some money.

I realise now that I need to put the word Settle, and maybe even North Yorkshire on the title above the display. I am hoping that a few of the groups who use the hall will join in and contribute.
