Safe Families Moms Group Lunch Team

Safe Families hosts a Moms Group every Thursday, providing a space for encouragement, connection, and support. As part of our partnership, Gateway will be blessing the group with a meal on the last Thursday of each month.

You can help by signing up to:

• Prepare a meal in advance AND/OR

• Deliver the meal to the Moms Group on Thursday morning.

This is a simple but meaningful way to show love and hospitality while creating a welcoming space for moms who are part of Safe Families.

Join us as we come together to help sort through Amazon donations for Lionhearts. These donations provide essential items for individuals and families in need across our community. We'll be organizing and preparing items for distribution, making it easier for Lionhearts to get supplies into the hands of those who need them most. It's a great opportunity to serve, connect with others, and make a practical impact. 

Saturday, October 18
10 am - 2 pm
Gateway London Campus

Bring the gently used clothing, snowsuits, mittens, boots, outdoor snow play equipment, and books you are ready to part with to the Hyde Park campus by Tuesday, October 14, and then join us on Saturday, October 18 to find the gem you are looking for!

We are looking for winter clothing (kids to adult sizes), toboggans, snowsuits, boots, hats, mitts, ice skates, and books. When donating books, please consider newer titles—fiction, cookbooks, and modern non-fiction—that are in good condition. Think of the kinds of books you’d enjoy picking up today.

We are also looking for volunteers to help organize the items in the week leading up to the swap, as well as on the day of the swap. If you are interested in helping, please click the link below.

* You do not have to donate to participate in the swap on Oct. 18 *

HIKE WITH US!

We’d love for you to join our Gateway Team on Saturday, October 18 as we hike in support of St. Joseph’s Hospice. Let’s walk together in honour of the people we love and the memories that are close to our hearts.

St. Joseph’s Hospice is a place filled with compassion, hope, and healing—for those nearing life’s end, for their caregivers, and for those who grieve. By joining in, you’ll be helping create a community where no one has to walk that journey alone.

To hike with us , make sure you select “Individual Registration” and on the next page “Join a Team” and choose “Gateway Church” from the drop down.

Help Make Summer Connections Happen!
Each Thursday this summer from 11AM–1PM, Safe Families is hosting a time of connection, play, and community at Saturn Park. Several moms and families would love to attend—but they need a ride. If you can volunteer as a driver for one family, it’s a simple way to support connection and belonging. You’re also welcome to stay and enjoy the time at the park, as these gatherings are all about building relationships.

Help Us Welcome New Students!

Summer isn’t over yet, but Gateway Cares is already looking ahead to the fall as we prepare to bless new students arriving on campus. During Gateway Fest, we’ll be handing out Student Care Boxes to first-year students from Fanshawe College and Western University — and we’d love for you to be part of it!

To join in, simply pick up an empty care box and a list of suggested items from the Connections Desk. Then fill the box with thoughtful goodies for students who may be living away from home for the first time. Think comfort and convenience: Starbucks gift cards, Kraft Dinner, Mr. Noodles, candy, chocolate, pens, pencils, coffee or tea, a travel mug — anything that says “you’re welcome here.”

Please return your filled box to the church by September 1 so we can have them ready to distribute during Gateway Fest on September 7.

Let’s show our students that Gateway cares!
