Mellor St. Mary's M.U. and P.C.C. members were busy preparing ham, cheese and tuna sandwiches for the Blackburn Summer Lunch Box project, July/August. Catering for 1500 children who receive free school meals.
This photo shows us with Mrs. Gill Ireland, Action & Outreach Co-ordinator for the Blackburn Diocese and Mrs Hilary Mercer Team Leader from the Methodist Church taking a break at 8a.m. one very hot, sunny morning during August.
We have been going down to town just after 7a.m. every day during the school holidays. It really gets addictive. But so well organised. Children get a sandwich, water, crisps and raisins.
Today we were back home just after 9a.m. Archdeacon Mark Ireland was there but he'd gone before we took a break to take the photo.

God give us the serenity to accept what cannot be changed. Give us the courage to change what could be changed. Give us the wisdom to distinguish one from the other.

We were blessed with a warm, sunny evening on
Saturday, 14th July when the friends of St. Mary’s Church enjoyed the
good food from the barbecue and refreshments from the bar in a friendly and
relaxed atmosphere at Myre Ash.
Once again, we are indebted to Maureen &
Alan Bell for the use of their beautiful home and garden, to Liz & Phil
Skupski for manning the BBQ (this year with the help of Susanna), to Littlers
for supplying the steaks and sausages, Jim for donating the cream, Jean for the
strawberries, Bernard for all the carrying about and The Millstone at Mellor
for their generous support supplying salads, sauces, bread rolls and a Voucher
for the Raffle.
Thank you to all who came along on the evening
as guests, those who made donations and/or gave raffle prizes and all those who
worked in any way to make the event such an enjoyable success.
