Christmas Cards within the Fellowship

For many years, Wantage Baptist has provided a Christmas Card postbox, enabling you to send cards
to friends in the church. The postbox (entirely optional) will be available in the church from Sunday 7th December, with a final posting date of Sunday December 14th.
IMPORTANT! Please ensure you write the full name (including surname) of the recipient on the envelope, so we know who it’s for! If you are not sure about any surnames, chat to a Deacon who can look at ChurchSuite.
You will be able to collect any cards addressed to you shortly after the 14th. They will be packed in bundles; please do take a bundle for people you know who may not be around to collect for themselves
