Beliefs & Practices

We firmly believe that part of the mandate of the church is to help the poor (Galatians 2:20, etc).  We are a depot for the Edmonton Food Bank where people are able to pick up food hampers delivered to us by the Food Bank on Wednesday mornings. To receive a Food Bank hamper, the person wanting one MUST call the Edmonton Food Bank at 780-425-4190 to arrange for a hamper prior to noon on Tuesday.  There is a limit to the number of hampers we can receive, so in the case of a large number of requests people may still not be able to pick up a hamper at the church.

We also have bread, pastries & produce available on the same morning.  There is no need to order ahead of time for these items.  The above are available to those people who have not ordered a hamper from the Food Bank.

If you are interested in helping us in this vital ministry please contact the church office for more information (780-476-7484).
