We believe that people of all abilities have been created to experience community! Our vision for "LINC" is to use its programs as a place of connection and growth for young adults with special needs.

It’s that special time of year again when we eagerly seek volunteers for our Christmas Toy Program.

Our festive shopping starts on November 27th.

This is a wonderful opportunity for volunteers to help in distributing toys to members of our community who could use some extra support during the holiday shopping season.

 Volunteer hours are from 9:00 am to 11:45 am or 1:00 pm to 3:30 pm, Monday through Friday, with two volunteers needed for each shift.

Your participation will greatly contribute to the success of this event.

 If you’re interested in helping, please reach out to Joanne at 519-273-3433 x 204, email volunteer@shob.org, or stop by her office at 423 Erie Street, Stratford.

Wendy Janzen, MCEC Eco-Minister, and Herb Sawatzky, pastor of Bethany Mennonite Church, invite you to join in a monthly prayer for our planet. Let’s come together to pray for our concerns around climate justice (ways that climate change has unequal impacts on marginalized and vulnerable populations, both human and more-than-human). Sign up for the Zoom link at mcec.ca.

We are currently seeking enthusiastic volunteers to support various areas of our work, and we would be delighted to have your community involved.

If you have any questions or need additional information, feel free to call us at 519-662-2867 or email emmanorris@mcco.ca.

Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to the possibility of working together!
