UPCOMING OFFERING: 

May 10th – Beginnings provides counselling and support to expectant parents experiencing unplanned pregnancies and assists people wishing to grow their families through adoption and embryo services. Offering hope and practical assistance to pregnant women and families in crisis while prioritizing the dignity and inclusion of all people is the foundation of our work. From the inception of our organization, Beginnings has sought to be a place where our Christian faith can be seen in the expression of compassion and love. Our core values hold us accountable to advocating for those who are vulnerable and building connections, for families to grow together. “At Beginnings, we believe that our connections to one another are our greatest strength. We believe in creating a space for everyone where families can imagine what is possible together.”

Grimsby Life Centre invites you to participate in Hope Grows Here. This campaign is about planting seeds of hope by supporting counselling and care for individuals and families who are walking through difficult seasons. Each gift helps provide steady, compassionate support and reminds people that they are not alone. “I planted the seed… but God has been making it grow.” — 1 Corinthians 3:6 To participate you can give online through www.grimsbylife.org or send an e-transfer to office@grimsbylife.org. Please include a short message of hope in the message line that we can share with our clients! Thank you for being part of the work God is doing in our community!

Gratitude Giving from Mother’s Day to Father’s Day - From Mother’s Day to Father’s Day we hope you will join us in our special campaign giving honour to mothers, fathers, omas, opas, grandmas, grandpas, aunts or uncles, or a loved one.  We invite you to take part in our Blooms of Honour, a campaign dedicated to enhancing our courtyard through the creation of more accessible seating areas in our existing gardens at Shalom Grimsby and/or the new courtyard in Faithstone Hamilton.

As a symbol of honour, the name of a parent, grandparent or friend can be written on a paper tulip in recognition of the gifts received. These tulips will adorn the glass windows to form our “Garden of Honour”.  Thank you for your support.
