Drop off points for donations

The good news is that although the building and contents were destroyed, the ministry lives on through the many people who have offered their support in prayer, finances and practical gifts such as office space and replacement food. For those of you who wish to donate practical items such as :

• Non perishable food (cold storage was destroyed in the fire)
• Toys for use as Christmas presents for the many children supported by the ministry
• Hats, scarves, sweatshirts, long johns, vests and other items that can be used as Christmas presents for adults
