SHELTER TO-GO Meals
Each Tuesday night, FBC Shelter serves a community meal for some of the city's most vulnerable. In previous years, guests could also stay overnight and enjoy breakfast on Wednesday morning, joined by other members of our community. However, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have suspended this part of our ministry.
We are operating with a very limited number of volunteers while the pandemic-related restrictions are in place.
Community meal is served at 8:00pm on Tuesdays.

KICKERS CAMPS
Every summer, as a way to support the young families in our neighbourhood, we run two affordable soccer & art camps that are open to ages 3-14 years old. Children, preteens, and teens have the opportunity to learn the essential skills needed to be an effective soccer player, teammate and leader on and off the soccer field. It is a wonderful way to improve their fitness, self-esteem and confidence. Subsidies can be made available. For more information, click here.
