RECENT EVENT:
Fill-a-Sock Kindness Kits for the Calgary Drop-in Centre: Nov 25 - We braved Black Friday weekend and used the generous donation from St. Paul’s Outreach to purchase essential items needed by clients of the Calgary Drop-in Centre.  We went to Dollarama and Walmart and were able to get almost everything on our lists and stay within budget!  Back at the church we re-energized with McDonald’s and pizza and then packaged the items into 8 gift bags, which included the filled sock and and more. The kits were blessed during the service on Sunday and will be dropped off at the Calgary Drop-in Donation Centre for distribution to their clients.
