Nourish East End Hosted the first Community Dinner since Covid, on Monday September 26th!
|
|
|
Nourish East End is excited to be bringing back our Community Dinners, after a 1000 day hiatus! COVID-19 has been difficult for so many in our community, and we have missed being able to share a meal with our neighbours. Thanks to the hardwork of our dedicated volunteers, we were able to serve 54 meals this past Monday (Sept. 26th) at our first Community Dinner back, since the start of COVID-19.
We had over ten volunteers cooking, serving, and greeting our neighbours who joined us for a delicious meal of Enchiladas and Rice!
Community Dinners will be taking place every fourth Monday of the month, and we are excited to open our doors again, on October 24th, for our next Community Dinner. Open to all; members of our congregation welcome!

Don't miss out on the last workshop this afternoon!

|
|

Tuesday afternoon from 1-3pm, October 4, Jennifer Palin will lead small groups contemplating "Trees". First, we'll share insights from scripture, then contemplate art, and then use our own creativity while making cards from pieces of "nature", to gain deeper understanding in to how we are connected to trees as fellow creatures within God's Creation.
