About the BIG Give
Every year on the first Saturday of June, churches across Canada of all denominations show their neighbours the unconditional love of God by giving, for free, asking nothing in return.
I was on my deck, smelled the BBQ at the church down the street, went over and got a free burger and some other free things I needed. I went to the church for the first time the next morning, found out who Jesus really was and how much he loved me. My life has been changed ever since.
Join us this year and see what happens in your church neighbourhood.
