We are thrilled to be the local site for monthly CP Clinic stops!
See below for what it looks like, and what happens. The clinic will take place at St Matthew's Hall, Florence, on the last Wednesday of every month, except December, when it will be December 18. Photo: Thanks so much to Emily and Frewin and Grant Purdy, Community Paramedics with Lambton EMS, for their care, and to community member, Harry Denkers, for representing the many who attended the premiere session on Sept 25!

Inn of the Good Shepherd, Sarnia, comes by in a big food truck every Wednesday in summer and fall to drop off fresh fruit and vegetables. Mid-summer, they added frozen meat.
That's awesome, except that particular mid-summer week was the week our freezer died... One was found at the village hardware -- shop local! -- and all was well. As the summer progresses, though, so does the volume of vegetables. Again, that's awesome, and we are able to distribute most, but not all of it. As we are church ladies, and as it might as well be added to the creed that we do not let food spoil, we thus chop and stew and pickle and freeze (in our new freezer) in the hours/days after the truck comes. We are prepared for a community lunch or two, and for anyone who needs frozen vegetables come winter. If you wish information on this, come see us on Wednesdays from 1:30-2pm or Saturdays from 10-10:30am. Or send us an email. Use the little envelope icon in the footer below to do that. We mentioned the learning aspect of our church on the Home page.
Part of this happens on the Sunday mornings we are on our own, without clergy. Part of this happens on Monday nights at 7 pm via Zoom. Write if you would like to join! Here is a link to the videos we made in 2021 about our Monday nights: The Rural Learning Church And part of this happens while we are out walking in the village, which is something we do rain or shine (but not in heavy rain, blizzards, ice storms...) from 9 am to 10 am Monday to Friday. Just show up across the street from 521 Florence Road, Florence, and you're in! |
