Rehoboth Ministries

Elementary School Friday, our school here in Sainte-Philomène had their annual Christmas party. Thanks to Bonnie Dopher from Hamilton, Ontario, the kids received homemade sewn pouches that took lots of time, effort, and lots of love to make. The boys’ pouches were filled with marbles, little toys, balls and such,…

We had a wonderful 2-day visit from the Mercy Chefs team based out of Virginia Beach, VA.
