Mission Sunday

This Sunday is Reign of Christ. One of the signs of Christ’s reign is compassion for the poor. Huntley Parish are focusing this Sunday on mission to the poor in our own community. We are putting together 50 men’s and 50 women’s packages that will include some basic toiletries and new socks and underwear for the clients of the Mission and Cornerstone in downtown Ottawa. Our plan is to assemble the packages after our Joint service at St James at 1030 on Sunday. Donations of shampoo, toothpaste, soap, deodorant, men’s underwear, and women’s socks are still gratefully accepted. You are most welcome to join us in this small gesture of compassion. It is another opportunity to make comfort to the poor, which was a priority of Jesus, our priority as well.
