Outreach Committee

Chairperson:

Rev. Erasmus Madimbu

The Outreach committee is responsible for:

  • Educating our members about what the United Church is doing in other countries; who is working overseas, and who our overseas partners are.
  • Educating ourselves and others about any justice issues that might rise.
  • Passing on any urgent appeals for help from conference or National.
  • Keeping abreast of what is happening in our community and other areas in Canada.
  • Raising awareness of Mission & Service.

Our committee covers a wide range of issues from Outreach to Church in Society and Stewardship. We presently have a committee of 6, and meet an hour before the Presbytery meeting; other times if required. We tend to pick one topic a year and work with that as our portfolio is large and our time on the floor small.
