OUTREACH TO OUR
COMMUNITY
AND BEYOND... |
Please Pray for Haiti and make your donation
to a registered charity ASAP Feb 12th is almost here and the Canadian
Government will not match your donation after that date. PWRDF
is taking your calls and web donations. |
DOLL
MAKERS BECOME QUILTERS 
The doll makers of Epiphany are now making
small quilts for the hospital's NeoNatal unit. These quilts are from our
excess material during the doll making for hospitalized children. They will
help families of stillborn children as well as others with loss or distress. |
STUFF ME PLEASE!
We have organized ourselves on a mission of sewing. Under the direction of
our Deacon Jane, we are organized to sew and stuff dolls for hospitalized
children. The dolls are given to help explain procedures and provide
comfort. This is very fulfilling and will be ongoing for the parish. The
hospital requires 60 dolls a month! |

LOONIES
FOR THE LORD SUNDAY
is also known as HURON HUNGER FUND Sunday (PWRDF). On the first Sunday in May we line up
collected "loonies" from the altar to the back of the church. AGAIN
THIS YEAR we raised over $600 and this is on top of the even more
generous donations to HAITI last month.

the church for them and thankyou.

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
is an annual event in our parish.
Pictured below are outreach programs Epiphany carries out
through the Christmas Season. 97 jars of Peanut Butter went to the Goodfellows in
for
Christmas baskets in the community, we beat that with 115 in 2009. As well Operation Christmas Child Boxes
were collected for overseas and we report 58 for Christmas 2009! Thank you once again for your
donations!

many other ministries to give thanks for: We continuously supply
our local food bank, collect bread tabs for the blind, stamps for the

shelters....Let's beat the 3 box loads of last year.
