Thursdays have become a very important day at St. Andrew’s. Starting late morning the Self-Help Food Bank opens up to better serve clients in the Hespeler area. The Community Clothing Centre is also open. The food bank sees around 40 families access their program every 2 weeks while the Clothing Centre sees approximately 100 people per month. Once evening arrives wonderful smells can lead you to our Thursday Night Supper & Social (provided from October to April each year). About 40 people come to eat each week.
