Christmas Hampers - HomeStart

Written by Gavin Bissessar on Nov 17th 2021

For some in our borough, this Christmas will be tough. We've been asked by Homestart to make 40 bundles of joy (hampers, not babies) to help reduce the struggle. Here's how Crown Church is responding.

James Hunting

Lead Elder

Stefan Brown

Elder

The University Lecturer who is universally loved. If you've not been to Crown Church yet, it's worth it just to meet Stefan and his wife, Jackie. Maybe one day you too can enjoy their cooking, a fusion of South Africa and Jamaica, as you hear stories of DJ-ing in the 'old days'.
