Here is a chance to part with your 'gently used' footwear. A Soles 4 Souls collection box is in the narthex and if you have any gently used footwear items you would like to see go to an appreciative recipient(s) somewhere else in the world, please drop them off. If you have lots and would like them picked up instead, just call David Savournin at 705-738-1892 to make arrangements. (FYI…David and his group collected over 300 pairs of footwear in 2024 and are aiming for 500 in 2025!).

A quick update on shoes... Another 81 pairs of 'gently used' footwear were delivered to BioPed in Lindsay this morning. That brings the TUC total to over 200 so far! This is truly amazing. The team at BioPed were shocked by the number of shoes we've been able to collect in such a short time. We assured them that there are more to come!
