Hello Lyn Church
I'm writing to ask if there would be anyone that you know of in Lyn who could offer rental accommodation to a young man named Eric originally from Cameroon who has recently found work at Burnbrae.
Eric has been attending our church since arriving in the country last summer. He is a very positive and helpful person, and has been a welcome addition to our congregation. He has also done some work for my house and is a very hard worker. If you can think of anyone who might have a room to rent in Lyn, please let me know or even better invite them to reach out to Eric directly at mpemeolinga2@gmail.com.
Gratefully,
Catherine Cavanagh
