Thank you for sharing

In spite of the times we live in, when many are finding it hard to pay their bills, this harvest we received collections from 98 schools and churches - 10 more than last year.

Thank you, and all the companies and individuals who also gave, for your generosity. It is essential help for our food bank which continues to provide for around 250 households in need every month. Thank you too to the volunteers who gave time to sort and date incoming harvest cans and packets. The team from Wesleyan pictured above did a huge amount of work!

BCM's Children's and Youth Teams visited dozens of schools to deliver special harvest assemblies with the theme of sharing and being generous. One school posted on X:

'Thank you to @Bham_City_Missn for an inspiring assembly about Jesus feeding the 5000. It reminded us all going forth to share our harvest with others, there is plenty for everyone!'
