St James' has a long history of work with our local homeless shelter, Abode Services, and currently has teams working on the dinner program and assisting with the rehoming of families through the home-warming program. It was great to have the opportunity this month to find a new way to support the work at Sunrise Village.
Our VBS team and 6 members of St J Youth took some of our VBS craft activities and the story of The Rainbow Fish to share with the kids as part of the Wed/Thurs night kids program. We acted out the story on the first night and let the kids have a go for themselves on the second night. We made beads, CD fish and colored in and had fun with the kids.
We hope to continue this extension of both our own work with children & families and of our communities' commitment to Abode Services.
