Belper Salvation Army Provides Food for Thought

Belper Salvation Army has launched a new initiative to help those who find it difficult to get to church on a Sunday.

The Food for Thought scheme combines the opportunity to enjoy a sandwich and a hot drink before joining in with a short lunchtime worship service.

Taking place on Wednesdays at The Salvation Army's hall in Market Place, the initiative is intended to give an extra opportunity for people to find out more about the Christian faith.
