THROUGHOUT the summer, St Oran’s Parish Church, Connel, is hosting lunches every Thursday from noon until 2pm.
The last lunch, on September 8, will be in aid of the charity Mary’s Meals.
The lunches, open to everyone, promote fellowship and raise funds for church repairs. A faithful team has cooked and served soup, tea, coffee and cake, cleaned the tablecloths and washed the dishes for a quarter of a century.
