Let's gather with our community neighbours

at St. Philip Neri Church
8 Park Rd., Musquodoboit Harbour

Thursdays
from 11:30 to 1:00
The Old School Community Gathering Place is working in conjunction with the parish of St. John of the Cross and Reaching Home/Affordable Housing Association of Nova Scotia(AHANS) to offer a weekly free community lunch. Everyone is welcome to gather at the hall of the former St Philip Neri church on Thursdays between 11:30-1:00 pm.
A unique aspect of our Musqui Café project is that we will also offer community resource navigators on site who can assist with various concerns such as housing, benefits, food security, ageing in place, youth support and mental health. This will be done in a casual setting which can be more comfortable for those who have not had positive experience previously. Follow-ups can then be planned by the corresponding agency or organization.
Meals will include both vegetarian and gluten free options and take out is available for those who may not wish to take part in a social setting. The project has been moved from The Old School location to the former St. Philip Neri Church, 8 Park Rd., Musquodoboit Harbour. At the church, extra services will be included in the project such as laundry facilities and showers for those in need.
