For two Thursdays in March we’ll be doing something different, Sr. Highs! We have set up a two week, back-to-back experience which will involve serving in both the MCC Generations Thrift Shop in Waterloo, and the MCC Head Office at the church building at 82 Westheights.
On Thursday, March 15th (that’s over the March Break) we’ll meeting at the MCC Generations Thrift Shop (50 Bridgeport Road East in Waterloo). Be sure to wear closed-toed shoes and come ready to serve. Heather Gallian will be leading us in our experience there… we can’t wait!
The following week, Thursday, March 22nd, we’ll be meeting at the MCC Head Office (50 Kent Avenue in Kitchener) to help out their Material Resources department. We’ll get a tour of the facility, get more information about MCC and what they are doing all around the world, and get to serve in a hands on way as we put together quilts and health kits for people who need them. If we have time, we’ll also walk as a group to the Tim Hortons down the street to debrief our experience. (So be sure to have some mocha money in your pocket!) PLEASE RSVP FOR THIS EVENT by March 15th by calling (519-741-1986 ext. 805), emailing or facebooking Gillian.
….the church building (82 Westheights Drive in Kitchener)! We’ve had a change of plans because MCC Material Resources can no longer accommodate our group. Instead, we’ll be meeting at the church to do some quilt knotting and to learn more about what MCC is doing around world.
Both events will take place at our regular time of 6:30-8:30pm. We will not be serving a meal either week, so be sure to eat dinner before you come!
As well, between Feb 22nd and Mar 22nd we will be collecting items for the MCC Hygiene Kits. For more information about what you can donate, CLICK HERE.
