Wow! BRANTFORD!

Thank you to our local churches and all volunteers for working tirelessly, going door to door, dropping flyers and picking up food, packing, sorting and moving food to Brantford Food Bank.

Kingdom Building right here and now, in our beloved community.

God is so good.

Wonderful morning serving our city by cleaning up the park after Canada Day. There are many congregations … but only ONE church.

WE DID IT! Another year in the books.

Our grand total for 2022 is 35,000lbs of food donations collected and delivered to the Brantford Food Bank. Our friends at the food bank shared their deep appreciation for this event again as it has become a reliable source for what they call “dry goods” through the summer months when they would otherwise go without at times.

While this is less food than the 47,000lbs we collected last year covering roughly the same area it is likely worth a similar dollar value to what we have collected in the past. The reduction in giving also, to me, speaks to the need at hand. Food banks across Canada are reporting a sharp increase in need and I am proud to stand with you the church to help fill that need. Thank you once again to BigSteelBox for your partnership.

One more important thing we want to share and something we would ask you share with your congregations - the food bank is in desperate need of volunteers to sort food. They need volunteers for one time events as well as some who can help on a recurring basis.

It’s exciting to see service groups asking the church for help when they need it and we hope we can answer the call again. Those who can help on a recurring basis can sign up at: https://crs-help.ca/foodbank/get-involved/donate-time/. Those who would like to send a team to help sort can contact Ashley via email at: [email protected]

Thank you all for your hard work and faithfulness to this event, those it witnesses to and those it serves. God Bless, see you next year.

Circle Square Ranch is in desperate need of youth and young adult volunteers to run camp starting July 5th. We are also looking to fill a few senior paid positions including: Lifeguard (Junior guard 16 yrs + or Senior guard 18 yrs +), Canteen and Day Camp Co-ord. The paid positions could be day help only, or room and board can also be provided. We are so excited to be able to run camp this summer, to finally be able to share the love of Jesus with children and youth is a blessing. Currently we are limiting camper capacity due to low staff numbers. Your help spreading the word to youth and young adults about an opportunity to minister at Circle Square Ranch would be greatly appreciated! For information on ministry opportunities visit our website at: www.csranchgrandriver.ca or contact Steve at: [email protected] or 519-717-4793.
