Due to popular demand, we have another Curry Evening at Melford Valley Tandoori in Long Melford on Monday 10 December at 8pm.
Unlike the the other two outings, which were Men’s Evenings, this one is very much open invitation to both sexes!
It is incredibly good value at just £10 for a set buffet menu. The guys at Melford Valley are really planning to pull out all the stops for us on this one, so you want be disappointed. Drinks are extra.
If you would like to come, please sign-up on Sunday at the Welcome Desk. You will also need to come armed with a £5 deposit (each person).
Meanwhile, do invite friends and family who don’t usually come to church things. It really is a great way of getting to know each other, as well as being a great night out.

A big ‘thank you’ for all those signed up to do a slot at Waitrose over the next two weekends. Our Storehouse Foodbank volunteers’ training takes place 8pm, Monday 19 November at 8pm at The Bridge Project, 20 Gainsborough Street, Sudbury, Suffolk CO10 2EU. Thanks to Annesta and her team for making this venue available to us.
It is important evening to attend as we need to be aware of what we are saying and doing, so we hope you will be able to make it. If for any reason this is not possible, please let the the Storehouse Team know.

Here’s how:
Firstly, we need to man Waitrose. We have just a few spaces left to fill for the continuous team rota for Waitrose on Sat 24 & Sun 25 November and Sat 1 & Sun 2 December. (We need 48 people in total.)
We will require your wonderful services for two hours. Each session will have three people on it. We will be giving out special Christmas shopping lists to Waitrose customers as they go in and collecting any donated items from them on their departure.
Secondly, we need your helping hands with the packing and delivery of the hampers themselves. We have kindly been donated office space by local business Wiles: Unit 6, Ballingdon Hill Industrial Estate, Sudbury, CO10 2DX.
Packing will happen in two phases:
Monday and Tuesday 26 & 27 November from 10am-2pm
Monday and Tuesday 3 & 4 December from 10am-2pm
Please let us know by phone (01787 377 670) or email which day(s) suit you best. You can, of course, just turn up, but it is helpful in our planning to know how many people to expect! (Waitrose have kindly donated hamper packing boxes.)
Thank you once again. I hope you will find this foodbank experience as fun and rewarding as us. Together we are making someone’s Christmas Day truly better than they could possibly start to imagine.
If you are not a part of the regular family of Stour Valley Vineyard Church, please don’t let that stop you from joining in. Just like our church, it is open to all. We would love to have you serving alongside us. Everyone has something to offer.
God bless,
The Storehouse Team
