Regular Events and Activities 

This is a photograph of the street front of Blessings Food Bank.

St. Andrew's Church supports the Blessings Food Bank in Zurich. Our St. Andrew's contacts for Blessings are Richard and Mary Erb.

Each month, items most needed will be posted here so that when shopping, if you are able, you can pick up the items. 

Simply bring the items to Church on Sunday and place them in the Blessings bins and they will be delivered to the Food Bank.

Remember the young man who was asking for recipes for a Cookbook using food folks usually get from the foodbank?


Well, it's done and ready for launch!  Sam would love you to join him for the launch on May 3 at 2 p.m. at the Huron County Museum in Goderich. 


Better still, put a team together for the cooking competition!


Each book sold puts a book into the hands of a foodbank client during the (potential) transition. Once we reach our goal of selling 200 books, the rest of the proceeds go to the Bayfield and Area Foodbank's fundraising efforts for relocation.
