St Margaret’s, Peachland — Parishioners contribute to Food Bank and OAC

The parishioners of St Margaret’s, Peachland, were very pleased to present this year’s
contribution to the Peachland Food Bank and the Okanagan Anglican Camp.

The parishioners of St Margaret’s, Peachland, were very pleased to present this year’s contribution to the Peachland Food Bank on December 15, 2023. The congregation was once again so generous with their nutritious food and other necessities, resulting in two Van loads of donations that were delivered to Judy Bedford at the Food Bank along with a cheque, which, together with the food donations, totalled over one-half of the funds raised from our annual Angel Bazaar. The other half of the money raised at our Angel Bazaar will be donated towards the restoration of Anglican Camp, OAC, which was destroyed by the McDougall Creek Wildfire this past August. Pictured are Gale and Frank Quesnelle who have been instrumental in running the Peachland Food Bank Drive at St Margaret’s for many years, Judy Bedford, Representative for the Peachland Food Bank, our Honorary Reverend Sue Mayoss-Hurd, and Donna Kusch. It was such a rewarding experience that can’t be matched at Christmas time.

St Margaret’s, the little church that would!

Camp OAC Restoration:  $1,672.27
Peachland Food Bank: $2,200.00  (cash and total Food Donations)
