PLUM PUDDINGS!
We would like to make this year’s plum pudding fundraiser
a church project with as many parishioners as possible
helping to make it a HUGE success. 
First of all, we need help with 2 things
We need 200 small tin cans in which to bake the plum puddings. 
We have 35 at the moment.  Please save any 14 ounce tins
(398 ml – used for fruit, veg, beans, etc) and bring them cleaned,
with labels removed, to the church or parish office for collection.
Next, we’d like to borrow steamers/canners – large pots
with racks for lowering the tins into the water.
  They will be needed for a brief period in mid November. 
Watch out for more details about our Plum Pudding Factory!
