2010-2019: Shell Seekers support Operation Noah - 2012 February

The Shell Seekers
" "
The Shell Seekers, St.James's Sunday School, got the run up to Christmas off to a great start with a morning of cake and craft making at the beginning of December followed by a sale of those items on Sunday 11th. The sale raised a grand total of £135.71 – not only was this much more than we hoped for, but it was great fun too, and well worth all the effort that children (and adults!) put in beforehand. This total has been donated to Operation Noah, a Christian charity with a focus on reducing climate change; they are working towards the complete decarbonisation of the British economy by 2030.

Operation Noah:
Provides leadership, focus and inspiration in response to the growing threat of catastrophic climate change endangering God?s creation;
Is informed by the science of climate change, motivated to care for creation by faith and hope in God and driven by the desire to transform and enrich our society through radical change in lifestyles and patterns of consumption;
Is rational regarding scientific insights, responsible in addressing the long term consequences of today's actions, and radical about future lifestyles.

Some of you will have been in church on the day that we had guest preacher Chris Brice introducing Operation Noah to us. He was very inspiring and it was decided that Operation Noah would be a worthy and relevant beneficiary of the children's hard work. That hard work resulted in a great range of different items for the sale including calendars, gift boxes, Christmas cards, tree decorations, wreaths, preserves, cakes, cookies and even dog biscuits! Well done to the children and parents who gave their time and energy to make the sale such a success – and thank you to all of you who bought items on the day and enabled us to reach such a terrific
