OPAL Luncheon Club
Seniors are the jewel of our church and community. They have an exciting luncheon program once a month from September to June.
Food, Fellowship and Information
Third Wednesday of the Month
12:00 pm to 2:00 pm
Phone (416) 222-9110 ext. 1 to register
Of course this ministry may not be for you—you’re not a senior yet! But if you are looking for fellowship with people who share your life experience, we have a ministry for you. Our seniors are a highly valued part of our church family, and continue to be actively involved in church ministry in many ways. At the Luncheon Club, all of those who attend are our jewels, our OPALs! (Optimistic People with Active Lives).
Our OPALs meet the third Wednesday of each month at noon for fellowship and a hot meal. A group of volunteers look after providing the meal and there is a small charge for the meal. The meal is followed by a program and short devotional. Programs have included such things as information from police on safety, greeting card making, carol singing, Salvation Army disaster responsive services, Addiction Services, Toronto History, Monarch Butterflies and much more.
You are invited to join us. We would be happy to add more jewels to our collection at the Luncheon Club.

The cost of lunch is $10.
