Seniors

staff are hosting a Fall luncheon for all our seniors on Tuesday, September 23rd. We'll be supporting our upcoming Faith in Action events at the same time so would encourage the seniors to bring some donations of canned items for the Food bank or shoebox items for Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes (suggestions include toothbrushes, soap and face cloth, school supplies, small toys, writing pads, etc.).  Maybe you have items at home you are not using that could be put into shoeboxes?  Or other items we can send to the shoebox workshop?  They also accept sewing supplies (sewing machines, sergers, fabric, zippers, elastic, fasteners, lace trim, ribbon, quilting, batting), knitting and crochet supplies (yarn, embroidery floss) and even hand tools (hammers, screw drivers, pliers, etc.). Eleanor Ross from the Shoebox Workshop Waterloo Region will be joining us and giving a presentation on what they do at the workshop.  Be sure to rsvp to office@faithchurch.ca by Sunday, September 21st.  Talk to Anita Heinitz if you have any questions.
