Once again, Kemsing and Woodlands Churches took part in Operation Christmas Child.

This year, we were joined by others around the village, with the library and the school kindly acting as drop-off points. People made good use of these, and as a result we were able to send off 126 boxes. (Last year, we sent off 82, so we set ourselves a target of 100 for this year. We more than beat that; the only problem is for next year — we'll have to set ourselves an even more ambitious target!)

In the New Year, we'll find out where our boxes went. In the meantime, well done everyone, and thank you to all the others in the village who joined us this year.
