City Mission Basket

The church has a basket for non-perishable food and grocery items for the City Mission.
Many families are dependent on the support of agencies like the City Mission as jobs dwindle and money fails to stretch to meet basic outgoings, especially with COVID-19. We also collect Small Change for the Small Room, with the coins being spent on toiletries and personal hygiene items which are distributed by the City Mission and St Vincent de Paul. Finally, we collect general second-hand items. Generally, these are passed onto the Christchurch City Mission but we also have an Op Shop in the Little River end of the parish. Thank you for donations – especially clean clothing. Please note that electrical items cannot be accepted.
