Saturday Meals Together
From November to April, we host a FREE monthly community meal, deliciously prepared by volunteers from Stirling, other local churches, and the Grand River Friendship Society! Meals typically take place from 5-8 PM on the third Saturday of the month.
We are grateful for donations of food from the Food Bank of Waterloo Region which make these community meals possible.
Contact us if you would like to volunteer!
