Outreach

Our goal is to promote Christian benevolence and outreach, both through the Synod and other Christian bodies, as well as through direct support of local community charitable organizations, events and global mission.

Previous Global Activities

• In 2012 and 2013 we helped raise funds for much needed building materials for Companeros Inc., who were actively rebuilding the barrios of Nicaragua. 
• In 2011, we supported the "One Community" project which is offered by Canadian Lutheran World Relief. This year long project was a huge success for our small congregation.
   

Local Activities

• We continue to support the Gloucester Emergency Food Cupboard throughout the year.
• We celebrate Christmas with the residents of Cumberland Lodge on Christmas Day.
