Sackville, N.S. corps transformation

Tue 19th Sep 2006 Add comment

The Sackville Nova Scotia Corps of the Salvation Army is into its third year of transformation by Captains Carson and Teresa Decker.

For example, their breakfast program at Harold T. Barrett Junior High has been a huge hit, filling a significant need for hungry stomachs.

They’ve begun a “Pioneer Club” with about 40 girls and boys participating in fun activities and badge-work.

The Community Response Unit is making regular stops in the community of 62,000 while the Decker’s are also directing a “basic shelf” cooking support program. That’s where folks on a tight budget can get valuable cooking lessons to make those dollars go farther and feed the family better.

That’s just the tip of the ice burg regarding the Army’s exciting interaction with the Sackville Beaverbank Kinsac community.
