Where Most Needed

Three ways to give:

  1. Credit card - use the box to the right. To designate your donation, please add details in the memo section after clicking the donate button.
  2. E-transfer (Interac) to finance@mennonitechurch.ca. Please specify designation in the memo and provide your address for receipt.
