Manna Volunteers

Each Wednesday, Manna Homeless Society is able to offer our friends at the Salvation Army Soup Kitchen an opportunity to stock up on weekend groceries and a chance to socialize with volunteers who believe in them. Our morning begins with a Blessing – a brief example from the Bible that highlights God’s amazing love for all of us. Then, we offer food and clothing – for all to ‘take what you need’ – with the chance to ‘catch up’ with each other on a week’s worth of activity. Pinky has spent some time in the hospital, and each week our friends are concerned for his health and thankful when he’s back. For many, our Manna Wednesdays at the Soup Kitchen is a time for forming a community of support – we worry about our friends and they worry about us – and together we know that God loves us.

Now is not the time to hold back. While it seems that Saturday mornings may no longer provide the best time to meet with people, we are able to offer greater resources through our weekly distribution at Smithers Road RV Park and the Soup Kitchen. But what is missing is the ability to fulfill the opportunity to talk/befriend people.

I’m looking for past team members [and new ones] who are available to join together for our Wednesday distribution. We’ll meet first at the Manna Storage Building located across the parking lot from the Wildlife Recovery Centre on Leffler Road at 10:00 – load up our supplies and venture to Smithers for 10:30 and continue on to the Soup Kitchen for 12:00 finishing around 1:00

Phone or email for a chance to chat and try out this great opportunity to encourage vulnerable and marginalized people.
