The past year we have been able to have services in person for our congregation and the public. We also broadcast them on YouTube for those that are home bound. For Bible Studies music prayer and meetings we still meet on Zoom keep our family safe and together. We house 5 AA and NA groups each week. Our free store is busy gathering sorting and supplying 9-12 other charities that deal directly with the cliental. Public health and drug counsellors use our hall weekly mainly for the homeless that gather for the Soupeteria on our property each day. We support the Soupeteria by covering some of it's costs and provide volunteers on Saturday.
New programs
At present time we have not undertaken any new programs. We are a congregation without a priest (for the last 1.5 yrs) therefore much energy is used keeping the structures and congregation in great shape and trusting in God that we will soon have a priest therefore more leadership and onward and upward.
