Mission and Service supports Stella Burry Community Services, a leading social services agency in St. Johns, Newfoundland, with programs for those dealing with mental health issues, addictions, abuse, illiteracy, and poverty. Stella Burry addresses three essential needs: counseling; affordable housing; and education and skill development. Mission and Service is at work in Newfoundland.
The Mission and Service Fund logo has many meanings. Here are a few of them.
• The logo can be thought to symbolize the different races, for our mission is shared with others. The colours symbolize different nationalities and races, but different people united as one -starting from one place but fanning out in different directions.
• Another interpretation might be to think of the logo as a table for a base filled with holy food. This is the wealth we share in common as a country, community and church. The table is bending in on itself due to the weight of the abundant possessions we have in North America. Yet in bending, the table moves toward being a circle, reminding us of the need for balance and completeness in life.
• Or the logo can be thought of as open hands, giving freely and lovingly to others. The Mission and Service Fund logo works as a reminder of our ongoing support to the Mission work of our church.
Your gifts to the Mission and Service Fund make this work possible.
