The pandemic has been a financially difficult time for many people in our community, so we decided to give back by having a free store. This event was located inside the gym at Christian Centre Church, and any items out on the tables were free of charge to whoever wanted them. Families had many different options such as new shoes, books, toys, fresh produce, grocery items, disinfectant wipes, masks, toiletries, and more. The most popular item of the free store was the shoes which were donated by a private donor. Safety Protocols were used throughout the day with staggered cohorts and social distancing in effect.
