New Life Church Woking organised a Christmas Day Dinner again last year at the Moorcroft Centre, Westfield. 70 guests, who would otherwise have spent Christmas alone, had a splendid meal and a most enjoyable day.
New Life Church also provided a Christmas gift and card to each of the 23 who were unable to attend the Christmas day meal but who received 'meals-on-wheels' on Christmas day.
There were over 50 helpers and drivers, from New Life and other churches as well as other volunteers from across Woking, who taxied guests to and from the meal, cooked, served and entertained. New Life Church were also grateful for the support of Woking Lions and Woking Borough Council.
The guests were joined by the Mayor and Mayoress, Cllr. Bryan Cross and Mrs Helen Cross, as well as the Senior Pastor of New Life Church and his wife, Andrew and Marilyn Kane - and they all rolled up their sleeves to help serve the meals!
After lunch, musical entertainment was provided by Tony Bushell, the Methold family and two of the regular guests, Ron and George Smithers, with the latter singing 'old time' songs known and enjoyed by many!
Organiser, Alan Willott, Community Co-ordinator at New Life Church , said, "A lot of the guests made very appreciative comments to us: the event was only possible because of the fantastic team of willing volunteers!"
