Youth
Group
Every Sunday during the school year from 12:30 until 2:00 pm, the Grace Church on-the-Hill
Youth Group
meets in the second floor lounge. The group is a
fun social club for youth where all are welcome. The age range
begins at age 11. If you know of a young person who might enjoy
pizza lunches, field trips, games, and having fun with their
peers, have them contact Nancy Kitchen through the church office at 416-488-7884 ext. 110.

Women's Groups at Grace Church on-the-Hill
There
are three major established women's groups at Grace Church on-the-Hill:
The Brandon Group, The Cariboo Group, and The Africa Group.
The
Brandon Group
The Brandon Group is famous for fun fundraising activ-ities and culinary expertise. Our live-ly meetings, held
approximately six times per year, are an enjoyable rein-forcement of com-mitment and friend-ship. We welcome new members to our active, congenial group. Our annual Bridge Luncheon is held in January.
The
Cariboo Group
Cariboo is a lively, diverse group of women (some working and some retired) formed originally in support of a mission to the aboriginal and non-aboriginal commu-nities in the Cariboo district of British Columbia. We con-tinue to be in touch with this area through Bishop Gordon Light who now oversees all the Anglican Parishes of the Central Interior BC.
We meet four times a year, and have a shared leadership to organize interesting speakers and study. Cariboo also continues to support a number of projects in our own community, such as Moorelands Camp and the Churches on-the-Hill Food Bank.
Newcomers are welcome; our meeting times vary but are noted in the church bulletins ahead of the meeting date. So why not come and see if you too would like to be a Cariboo.
The
Africa Group
Our
link to Africa is ongoing support to an African cleric and
fam-ily in Ghana. The group has donated supplies to the Kilema
Hospital Project in Tanzania. To educate ourselves, we have
speakers, movies, and videos about Africa. We meet on the last
Monday evening of the month at 8:00 PM approximately eight times
a year. Please come to the next meeting, if you are in Toronto
at the time. Contact the church office to find out the next
date.
