Christmas lunch works a real treat

For those who felt left out on Sunday, the Grain Shed Church of Christ held a free Christmas Day lunch open to anyone who wanted to come along.

Grain Shed senior pastor Simon Warrick said this was the second successful event.

“We had over 120 people, which was great,” he said.

Lunch consisted of a roast followed by dessert with a choice between pavlova or Christmas pudding.

Pastor Warrick said the event was a chance to connect with the community.

“I heard some wonderful stories from people who had nowhere else to be,” he said.
