10th annual Lenten Lunches at St Peter’s parish hall

-

ST Peters (Church of Ireland), Parish Hall, Peters St, Drogheda are running their tenth year of a series of lunches, on each Wednesday during Lent commencing on the 14th February for the benefit of Drogheda Homeless Aid.

They will be offering a choice of tasty soups, sandwiches and tea or coffee, each Wednesday between 12:30pm and 2:30pm in return for a suggested donation of €6 for adults and €3 for children.

All ingredient­s for the lunches and costs are completely sponsored by businesses and individual­s in the local community and as a result the entire proceeds will go towards Drogheda Homeless Aid.

Honorary Treasure of St Peters COI, Clive Bagnall said “Last year, the Lenten Lunches held in St Peters COI produced a magnificen­t result of €20,000 for Drogheda Homeless Aid and this year we hope to match this figure”.

Pam Bagnall, the organiser said: “The idea behind the Lenten Lunches is that we are reaching out to our local community and it is a fantastic way for people to support this worthwhile local charity, and we are lucky to have this wonderful facility of our Parish Hall available to us.

If you wish to make an enquiry regarding the use of the St Peters Parish Hall, please phone the parish office on 041 9838792.
