It's more blessed to give than to receive...

We want to make November a month for giving. There are several initiatives/community projects that we actively support as a church, and we want to dedicate the whole month to giving to them either financially, through donations, or with our prayers and time.

Below are details of how you might be able to support the community through specific initiatives, particularly as Christmas is fast approaching and the cost of living has increased significantly leaving many individuals and families in need.

All donations can be dropped off throughout November at Living Rock Church in Stoney Stanton during the week and on Sundays, or at Meadowdale Primary School in Market Harborough and The OSCA Centre in Atherstone on Sundays.

🎁 Donations...

Donations are a great way to give this month. You may have some spare food or products at home, or you may see something on offer and choose to buy it specifically to donate.

However you do it, we encourage you to think about what can be donated this month.

You can find some helpful lists of suggested products to donate to each initiative on this page.

🙏 Give prayer...

Prayer is something we can all give! Our prayers are powerful and we pray to a God who listens and a God who answers prayers. Why not take some time regularly this month to pray for all the initiatives mentioned on this page, asking God to bless them, to provide miraculously, and to presence himself with the workers/staff and those on the receiving end of what they are doing. We pray for many to come to know Jesus this year and that His kingdom would be extended through each initiative.
