Ways in which you can become involved and help to change the world.
Please contact Kathy Booth kathy.booth@hotmail.com if you have questions or have any suggestions regarding other outreach programs.
Climate change is not an environmental issue. It is a threat multiplier that disproportionately affects the poor and vulnerable, and therefore, taking action is part of living into the Gospel. Everyone is welcome to join in our monthly Climate Conversations on ZOOM where we discuss what is on our hearts and learn from each other. Conversations have focused on topics such as calculating carbon footprints, investing in a fossil-free future, emerging technologies, and the moral and spiritual questions posed by the climate crisis.

Contact Peter Jones (pjones2570@gmail.com) for further information and to join the conversation.
Call 211 for opening information.

A free pantry adjacent to the WR Playhouse near Russell and Johnson Rd. Donors are encouraged to donate non perishable canned fish, soups, stews with easily opened cans. Boost, ensure, granola bars are also welcome. Cheques to Peninsula United with a note in the memo line for the Food Pantry as well as financial donations made on the PUC website allow goods to be purchased in bulk.
The history of our three founding congregations demonstrates that Peninsula United is a community that cares. In the past your generous donations have allowed families seeking refuge to come to a country of safety and opportunity.
Peninsula United has now committed to bring these same opportunities to a new family; the Bokre’s from Ethiopia and has also committed to provide financial support for the family’s first year in Canada.
Weekly contact is made with this small El Salvador community. They are currently working on preparing natural remedies. A small pharmacy project and a bee hive project continues to be very positive.
For more information contact Cheryl Lightowlers at Cheryl.lightowlers@gmail.com
We have had two interfaith meetings to share our outreach programs on the Peninsula. Next meeting to be in November at Mt. Olive Lutheran Church.
