| Food Facts Friends Christmas Lunch - 21 December |
Serving tables with the Christmas meal
Food
Facts Friends Christmas lunch on Friday 21st welcomed over 60 visitors
to St. Mungo’s church hall. Town Crier ‘Mose’ opened
the event and our traditional Christmas meal was introduced by the Rev
John Urquhart saying the grace. We started with soup, followed by
roast chicken and all the trimmings.
The
Salvation Army band played Christmas carols throughout our meal which
was followed by a thank you from charity patron Michelle Ballantyne
MSP. She thanked supporters Tesco, Asda, JB foods, Forth Demolition,
the team of volunteers who prepared, cooked and served the meal, and
Mark Wells who organised the event.
Before our dessert Rev John told us the true meaning of Christmas using a video carol as Christmas pudding arrived.
A
visit by Santa Claus, handing out gifts to all the children and adults
was followed by a free raffle where four lucky winners collected
large Christmas hampers donated by JB Foods.
Thanks
to all who made this Christmas lunch possible. Those who donated food,
gifts or financially, and those who volunteered their time and talents.
Food Facts Friends, making Christmas, celebrating the birth of baby Jesus, special for everyone in our community.
We are all God’s children.
Enjoying our meal
Thereafter returns to Monday and Friday each week - 10.30am to 1.00pm.
