The church primary and major charitable activities aside providing a platform and venue for spiritual worship fellowship and deeper connection with God include feeding the homeless and providing temporary shelter for strangers homeless (including new immigrants) and the destitute. We partnered with Second Harvest to pick up food (food rescue) which we had volunteers distribute to homeless in downtown Regina and downtown Saskatoon. We housed a few individuals who had accommodation issues by putting them in Airbnb and also putting them in the basement of some willing church members that were willing. The church expensed on feeding on this people to ensure their comfortability as well as ensuring that they do not become a burden on their host. When they got a job and moved to their personal spaces the church expensed on setting up this spaces up with basics such as mattress cooking utensils couch desk and chairs. In addition: We hold worship services weekly. We offer pastoral care. We operate a recycling service.

New programs

The new program we had in addition to ongoing ones was our cloth drives where we encourage members and volunteers to donate their old winter gears and clothes in general. We mobilized volunteers to help with the sorting and distribution. This became part of our Harvest week charity event
