Help for malawi
The Mid Argyll Churches Malawi Twinning Group sent £4000 out to our friends in Kasamba Church to help them with protective supplies for the Covid Pandemic. The minister of their church, Rev. Custom Kapombe, whom some of you will have met, has sent this report on how the money was spent. There are lots of lovely pictures in the report and a breakdown of where the money was spent.
Tear fund quiz night
What a fun evening in Achnamara Hall. We raised £408. Well done to the organisers, the chefs, the washer uppers, the contestants and of course the quiz master! Thank you all.

A big thank you to everyone, who baked, nurtured their plants, made sandwiches, provided gifts, manned the stalls, served the food, tidied up and of course to all of you who came and spent your money!
We made £802.60!
Achnamara lunch and crafts
Achnamara Hall and North Knapdale Church joined together in their annual lunch and Christmas craft fair.
There were some lovely goods on offer at the craft tables. Mary’s knitted decorations sold well.
Fraser has published a book and was tying up his sales beautifully.
Jane had a distinctive array of baskets and honey for sale. Lynne had some pretty hand painted Christmas decorations on her table.
Jan’s paintings were popular, as was Nick’s puffer table in the background.
A good time was had by one and all. Almost £600 was raised to be shared between the hall and church. Thanks to everyone who baked, cooked soup, made crafts and all those of you who came along to support these two good causes.
