Our Resource Centre is comprised of several areas. We have a retail space, a lending library and a donated books area where you can browse to purchase, place an order, borrow reading resources as well as feel free to take home anything on the donated book shelf. The donated books you take home do not have to be brought back but you are encouraged to pass them on if you no longer require them.

We have 2 small spaces that can be used for meetings for no charge. We even have a tea pot, a coffee maker and a small fridge for your use if you should need it.

Returning to old patterns of behavior is a wasted chance. A theological opportunity for the church lies in rediscovering the classical aim of leisure."

Her Granny bought her a shiny orange shirt that she loved and wore to school for the first day. When she arrived at the school, this shirt was taken away from her and never returned. This is both Phyllis Webstad's true story and the story behind Orange Shirt Day, which is a day for all Canadians to reflect upon the treatment of First Nations peoples and the message that "Every Child Matters" suggested for ages 4 - 6"
