What’s Happening This Month At BOC
This month at Bruce, we are focusing on our youth! More specifically, the youth that will be attending church camp this July.
The kids will be hosting a Valentine’s Spaghetti Dinner on February 17th for couples to come and enjoy. They will be the waiters and waitresses for this event and have been tasked with filling 4 different time slots for the evening! The idea is that couples can purchase a table for $15 and receive drinks, an appetiser, main course, and dessert. All of the proceeds will go to the cost of the ticket for that child.
Last year, we sent over 10 kids and 3 adults to church camp and this year we plan on sending even more. So we will be doing other fundraisers to help offset the costs as much as possible.
What else is going on?
This month we are continuing to host the local Tri-Towns basketball league on the weekends. The league brings an INCREDIBLE amount of people, of all ages, through our gym! Our church members even volunteer to run a concession stand to help with the costs of heating our gym for the league as well!
As February is fully underway, we have begun to set our eyes on Easter which is in March this year! We typically fill 6,000-7,000 Easter eggs for one of the largest egg hunts in the area. So purchasing candy and gathering donations for the event IS A MUST!
All in all, we stay very active here at BOC! If you wish to stay up to date on current events, sign up for our newsletter or follow us on Facebook. Everyone at BOC is a volunteer, including myself, so we do our best to keep everything as freshly updated as possible.
If you wish to make a donation to the youth going to church camp, please feel free to do so with the link below! I know for a fact that the kids will be absolutely thrilled to know that costs have been covered and they can set their sights on getting prepared for an entire week of fun!
Thank you so much for reading!
