Centennial Projects for Holy Spirit Anglican Church in Whonnock
We invite the neighborhood to participate in these Centennial projects from now throughout 2021,
and let us know when you have done some of these:
More projects may be suggested as time goes on but we hope this keeps you engaged in these days of physical distancing and self-isolation – and maybe even relieves some stress.
How to tell us you've done these: email holyspiritanglican.whonnock.ca
phone 604-462-7933 - leave a message and Jean Davidson will get back to you.
Please leave your name and contact info.

We invite the neighborhood to participate in these Centennial projects from now throughout 2021,

- Walk 100 meters a day for 100 days - Keep track and let us know when you get there.
