LUNCH BOX MINISTRY ALL WELCOME

From Outreach and Missions Ministry:

As we practice isolation during this time remember those in our community who rely on donations to sustain themselves. 

As you may know our congregation has supported and been involved in the creation of a number of local support programs within the community such as the Kawartha Lakes Food Source and the community soup kitchen.  During times like these, programs like these are even more necessary while at the same time they find their resources shrinking.  St. Andrew’s hosts the community soup kitchen and regularly conducts food collection campaigns to support local food distribution organizations like the Kawartha Lakes Food Source.  During this period of shutdown many organizations who regularly collect food aren’t collecting food at this time, and the soup kitchen has for now closed its doors.  St. Andrew’s is setting up a box lunch program to fill the void created by the temporary closure of the soup kitchen. 

Besides the normal methods of supporting by volunteering and food donations another option is to support these organizations financially which allows them to purchase the food they need on their own. For those interested in financially supporting the Kawartha Lakes Food Source, donations can be made using the following methods:

  • Cash or debit at KLFS (41 George Street West), Monday – Friday 8:30 am – 4:30 pm,

  • Mail cheque (KLFS, Box 123, Lindsay, ON, K9V 4R8),

  • Credit card in person or call 705-324-0707,

  • Online by clicking the Donate Now (https://kawarthalakesfoodsource.com/donate/)

For those interested in supporting the box lunch program donations can be made to the church with a special note ‘In support of Box Lunches’
