Lound and Blundeston’s ‘Lent Lunch’ took place on Friday 22nd March in Lound Village Hall. It was much enjoyed by everyone, despite the near disaster of the cooker hob not working. Nowhere to heat the soup! In the end we had to warm each mug or bowl individually in the microwave (three cheers for microwaves!) – a bit of a slow process but it didn’t seem to dampen spirits.
So far the combined efforts of the whole Somerleyton group have raised around £400 towards the Bishop of Norwich’s Lent Appeal, and the continuing missionary work in Papua, New Guinea.
Thank you to everyone who came to support us, and very special thanks to the valiant helpers in the kitchen, whose sterling efforts saved the day!
