From Cornerstone Hub: “Dear friends, we need help for the Grove &
Wantage Extravaganza, on Sat 20th August. We'd like the community
to know God loves them and we are here to serve them. In particular we
need help to put up our small marquee and arrange displays from 9.30am
until 1.30 pm. Then we hope to sell drinks and give away cakes/squares
during the event. We'd like volunteers for this in one-hour shifts
(around 6 people for each shift). If you could help, please let Sarah
Tippett (sarahtippett@btinternet.com) or the Cornerstone Office
(office@cornerstonegrove.org.uk) know. Thank you and God bless you.”
