The Jean Grove Fayre, Sunday 4th December

Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to help out at the annual Jean Grove fayre which will take place here at Blackfriars on Sunday 4 December in the morning. We now have enough volunteers to staff the various stalls but would still welcome donations of baked goods such as cakes and minced pies, as well as bottled items such as jams, jellies, and chutneys. These can be donated on the day itself. All the money raised will go towards supporting education in Ethiopia through direct links with specific schools.

The Gaudete Sunday Party, Sunday 11 December

This is an opportunity for the Dominican community here in Cambridge to say thank you to all those who support us in so many different ways and help to make our mission here in this city so happy and fruitful.
