Our congregation, while small, is motivated by the words of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew.
"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." Matthew 25:35-36
We do all that we can to help the poor, take care of the sick and welcome the stranger. We are strong partners with the Community Christmas Hamper Campaign coordinated through the Jeffery Hale's Community Services in English. We organize and run a diaper drive for young mothers living in poverty. As partners in the local chapter of Project Linus, we are active in taking care of sick children by providing them with handmade blankets. Those we help are strangers but all are warmly welcomed in our hearts.
We invite everyone to participate in the United for Peace Campaign, one expression of The United Church of Canada’s commitment to pursuing a just peace with dignity for all God’s people. For more information about this campaign, consult The United Church of Canada's presentation of the campaign.
