WLA in the Community
How are we involved in the London community?
We have a number of local missions focused on meeting needs in the community:
We have a community garden for our neighbours in the community.
We lead a conversational English ESL program for women in the community on Friday mornings.
For the seniors in the community we have weekly drop-ins and exercise classes, including Bible studies and worship services.
We contribute resources (WLA Cares funds and our donation bin) to the Northwest London Resource Center, who run a food cupboard for families in need in our community.
We have a work team that helps out with projects in the community including building, fixing, moving, and helping those in need.
We have a Community Impact Team that goes downtown weekly to serve the "least of these" (Matthew 25:40).
If you are interested in finding out more, contact Graham Buchanan (Pastor of Community Life).
