This past weekend, Sept 11-12th, Mennonite Central Committee held their annual Fundraising event at the Abbotsford Tradex Building.

United Mennonite Church - Black Creek

"5 youth graduated from our new youth ministry in June, and our youth worker, Shawna, has welcomed a solid group of preteens into this growing program.

Helping out with VBS was a new leadership experience for these preteens, and they excelled due to Shawna’s encouragement.”

Way to go Shawna and team at UMCBC!
