Again this year members and friends of Pennar Community Church in Pembroke Dock were able to support the Samaritan's Purse Shoebox Appeal, with 40 boxes filled with gifts including toys, toiletries, sweets, hats, gloves, scarves, colouring books, pens, pencils etc being donated.

The shoeboxes have been delivered to Shoezone in Tenby, one of the collection points, from where they will be forwarded for distribution to children in many third world countries.

This may be the only gift that they will receive this Christmas and we thank God that we are able to share with children in this practical and caring way.

Pictured are the boxes and some of those who donated them.
