Mission

Distribution of free food and clothing. Limited Payments towards short-term prescriptions. Free food and shelter in Church for 15 weeks during winter months. (We were not able to this in 2021 due to COVID 19). THE association used to also provide help with prescriptions but due to lack of funding from the Federal government that program has been temporarily suspended. The associations buys groceries from low budget cash and carry and distributes to about five churches in the area. People in the community in the jurisdiction of these churches call the churces to request food and any other help that they may require.
