Hypothermia Center

Pender is hosting a Hypothermia Center in January and help is needed during the week of January 11-18.

We need servants to welcome our brothers and sisters in from the street during the week.

Servant roles are: greeters, meal preparers/servers/clean-up, overnight security, van drivers, food/toiletry/etc. donors, and anyone interested in experiencing the joy of serving our fellow man!
