Community Outreach Program

Generosity is one of the foundational pillars of Buddhism. When we give selflessly without expecting to be rewarded for our time, energy, or material offerings, we help to foster a more compassionate and interconnected world. Our Community Outreach Program gives our members and friends the opportunity to serve those in need in our community.

We offer help on three Sunday mornings a year from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm at the Shepherds of Good Hope dining room and kitchen. We prepare food and serve meals to those who come for the free lunch.

Volunteers who have taken part previously have enjoyed coming together as a community to practise service. We hope to expand this program as we examine future opportunities.

Opportunities to take part will be announced in the monthly OBS  newsletter. All adult OBS members and friends are welcome to join us.
