As we enter Advent, we look forward to presenting our White Gifts that go to support the disadvantaged in our community. Two types of White Gifts are received - gifts of goods and financial gifts. But how are we going to give when we can't be together? Here is our plan:
1. Gifts of Goods
This year we would appreciate:
*canned goods including meat, vegetables and fruit
*hygiene products for men and women
*new Socks, mitts, underwear for men, women and children
Please, bring the items to the GILBERT STREET PARKING LOT on Nov. 28 or 29. There will be boxes or baskets outside the kitchen door from 9 am till noon, both days, to collect your donations of goods. Thank you so much for your generous support!
2. Financial Gifts
Even though we are not together, we hope that you will still be generous in remembering others with your White Gift donation. You can donate by:
*Cheque mailed to the church with the comment "White Gift"
*The donate button on our website mmuc.org or directly at Canada Helps. On the fund line scroll down to '5, White Gift Fund's
Donations are gathered together and distributed between Wesley Urban Ministries, Living Rock, and Ancaster Community Services. Let's make sure we are able to support them well this year. Please send monetary donations before December 15 to be included in time for Christmas
