Together with Central Baptist Church in Oakville, and in cooperation with the CBOQ, we are sponsoring a family of 6 Refugees who have been displaced from their homeland in Syria. A joint committee from both our churches has been established and we are gathering the resources needed to support a family for a period of one year, as they seek to settle into Canada. Regular updates to needs and progress will be shared on this page.
The Fundraising Goal for King's Community Church is $25,000 - We have reached our FIRST GOAL of $5,000 for Start Up Costs and we are now continuing to raise the next $20,000 for the balance of our costs for this year. The chart below shows our progress in reaching this goal (as of January 29, 2017).
NEWS RELEASE!! Our friends from Syria have arrived and are in the process of settling in here in Oakville. There are lots of appointments and arrangements being made to help them to begin their life here in Canada. Please keep the family and the refugee committee in your prayers.
