St. Mark’s Church looking for local volunteers to help serve free Christmas Day meal in town
December 14, 2018 · 0 Comments
St. Mark’s Anglican Church, which for several years now has been providing free Christmas Day meals for those in the community who would otherwise be left out, has issued a call for volunteers to help out.
“Christmas is less than two weeks away,” the church said in an email Wednesday. “If you would like to come to our Christmas Day Lunch or volunteer please call the church at (519) 941-0640 or by email, office@saintmark.ca.”
The meal, which features turkey and all the trimmings, takes place in the wheelchair-accessible church hall, and includes fellowship and carol-singing. It’s open to anyone in the community, and doors will open at 11 a.m. with the meals being served starting at 11:30.
