It is essential in their lives. Outside of this it has been a helpful influence in the life of this community and its church hall has for years been available without cost to those of all faiths. Due to the four vears of business slow-down, from wnich we are now happily emerging, St. Mary's church finds itself in urgent need of immediate and generous financial assistance without which it would not be possible to continue its work for its parishioners and for the general wellare of Camden.
