Easter Cards for St Margarets Housebound Parishioners signup sheet

We need your help! The Families of St Margaret's church have been asked to create Easter cards for some of our housebound parishioners. Our organist Emma also has contact with a local care home. It will also be another activity to keep the children busy! We would like as many of the families and children to take part as possible. We have over 70 recipients and may have more in the next couple of days! You could sign up for one recipient per child but maybe you could make an extra. It will be a good excuse anyway to get making Easter cards for everyone and then you make a few extra ones for the church!

So here is how to join in:

1. First sign up to a recipient/s using this link. It will take you to a sign up sheet.
volunteersignup.org/M433D
To sign up, just follow the instruction on the page. It will only take a few seconds to do.
2. Get creative and draw, collage or paint an amazing card no larger than A5 size please when finished. Don’t worry if you have limited resources as a pencil drawing on paper would be just as gratefully received! Try and keep it reasonably flat so not too much 3d stuck on as some will be posted.
3. Please then write your card to your recipient/s from your family with a Happy Easter message. For safe guarding please only use your first names.
4. Put it in an envelope addressed with your recipients name and if there are details in brackets please add that too.
5. Deliver to Father Peter at the church presbytery (his house) by WEDNESDAY 1st APRIL

They will then be safely collated, sorted and then posted or hand delivered by Emma to the care home so to arrive in time for Holy Week.

Happy creating and thank you for volunteering as it will bring some cheer to everyone.
