St Andrew's Ministries
Mission and Outreach
PURPOSE:
Under a mandate from St. Andrew's Session, this Committee endeavours to involve the whole congregation in mission:
- Through Presbyterian World Service & Development, the congregation contributes to world hunger relief and disaster relief.
- Through the Presbyterian Mission, Evangel Hall, we assist those in need in Toronto
- Through the Teeswater and Leaskdale Presbyterian Cropshare projects, St. Andrews has supported the Canadian Foodgrains Bank. By contributing to cropshare programs, donations are multiplied significantly by the Federal Government.
- St. Andrew’s members support the Food Bank regularly through food items and financial donations.
- St. Andrew’s provides Financial funding for Mission & Outreach project in support of Pikangikum First Nations Healthy Babies group.
The congregation is to be commended for its tremendous support of the initiatives of the Mission & Outreach Committee.
New committee members from the congregation are always welcome.
Sandwich Making for Evangel Hall
As a part of the Mission and Outreach efforts, we gather on the 4th Monday of every month to make sandwiches for Evangel Hall.
Please contact the church office or Carol Dabene for more information.
Coffee, Crafts, and Conversation
This group is an extension of the Christmas Bazaar. We meet in the church hall every Thursday morning from 10 am-12 from May to the end of June and again in September to November. Members bring their crafts and ideas for the bazaar. A fun group and anyone joining us can expect a warm and friendly welcome.
