Boxes of Love Update

Here is a quick update on what was gathered during our God's Glove Initiative. Once again CPC was very generous. Rose McManus and members of her Life Group came in this week and sorted and packed 11 large boxes of goods and clothing intended for the homeless here in the Comox Valley. Much of what came in is brand new.



As some of you know....The Bridge Ministry has found a new temporary place where they can minister to those in need. We will be passing along what has been received to John Enns and those serving in this ministry.
