Coldest Night of the Year for Kennedy House: Saturday, February 24th, 2024
St Barnabas was blessed to receive a bequest from a parishioner. We felt that we needed to tithe some of it. We voted at Vestry 2023 to donate a large amount to Faith Works and also to donate $50,000 to Children's Circle Day Care to help cover the cost of the new playground. Wardens Gary & Teresa presented Michelle, the Day Care Director, with the cheque in Feb. The community and children in the Day Care are loving the new facility.
