Food4Kids Fact: 10% of school-aged children in Halton live at or below the poverty level and come to school hungry. The smallest kind, loving gesture can have a lasting impact on a child. We are collecting for Food4Kids who provide healthy food for children with limited or no access to food each weekend. We are collecting both perishable and non-perishable items such as individual packets of oatmeal, apple sauce, fruit cups, soup, baked beans, cans of chili and stew, cans of tuna and salmon, raisins, pasta, cheese and cracker packs, cookies, fresh fruit and vegetables. Perishable items can be left in the downstairs fridge. God bless and a big heartfelt thank you for all your donations and your love expressed to those in need.
Men’s Street Ministry meets face-to-face with the homeless and less fortunate in downtown Hamilton, distributing soup, sandwiches, snacks, beverages and clothing to those in need, and showing God’s love to those they meet along the way. “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” Matthew 25:35.The organization is looking for mayonnaise and tuna to prepare sandwiches for needy persons in Hamilton.
Church Repairs– The trustees have arranged a date for the repairs to the carport at the entrance to the front of the church and the facia at the back of the church. Work will start July 23 and is expected to be completed by July 27.
In your prayers, please remember all of our elderly and shut-in friends and family as they contend with the challenges of poor health.
