West Ferris Community Brunch: Cancelled due to pandemic.

The West Ferris Community Brunch has been serving the North Bay community since June 6, 1996,
with a breakfast, twice a month with the exception of July and August when our loyal volunteers take a vacation break.
​​​Mission Statement:
  • We are a caring ecumenical outreach community of volunteers that recognizes the dignity of every person and welcomes everyone with respect for their beliefs and needs.
  •  We provide to any participants a hot meal, friendly support, referral information and other assistance. at St. John’s Anglican Church the 2nd Saturday of the month and Emmanuel United Church every 4th Saturday of the month. 
  •   Our goal is to make contact with those in need and then invite their involvement in the program.  
  • We also promote the socialization of the participants, and make sure all participants have a good breakfast and a welcoming environment in which to eat it in.
The four participating churches are - Church of Christ, Holy Name of Jesus Roman Catholic Church, St. John’s Anglican Church and Emmanuel United Church. The financial support of this program is from these churches as well as generous support from other individuals.

Donations: 
  • ​​We receive three dozen muffins monthly from The Sisters of Saint Joseph of Sault Ste. Marie at the Motherhouse for each Brunch served at Emmanuel Church and St. John’s Church.
  • Congregants provide groceries which are handed out to folks at Emmanuel’s brunches.
  • Donations are most appreciated.
  • Raymonde Duchesne is Brunch Coordinator and Treasurer.
  • ​Zona Besson is the coordinator for Emanuel United Church.   
​Please contact  Raymonde Duchesne or Zona Besson if you know anyone who might be interested in being a volunteer.
Come enjoy a free meal and a place to meet your friends and bring your children too!
