Tickets are available at the Neerlandia Coop Home & Farm Centre,  the Barrhead Flower Shoppe, and Greig Printing & Stationery in Westlock.

prayer, handwritten by the youth. Items needed are: toiletries – small
and regular sized items for men and women; underwear for men and
women (new); gently used winter jackets; winter shoes and boots;
gently used men’s sweaters; socks (new); backpacks. We will make
our delivery to the Mustard Seed on November 9, when the youth is
going out there to cook and serve a meal for the homeless.
If you’d like to help our youth and the Mustard Seed, you can bring
your donation to the church- please leave it behind the bulletin board
