With grateful hearts, we thank all who responded to our 2025 Stocking Fundraiser. The kindness and compassion were truly a blessing, and the outpouring of support from our parish and community was overwhelming.
In addition to monetary donations, we received gifts of warm socks, hand warmers, gloves, gift cards, and lovingly hand-knitted hats and scarves from Mepec in Beloeil, along with other thoughtful contributions too numerous to mention. We are especially grateful to Familiprix Chambly for their generous donation of personal hygiene products. Used winter coats and hats were brought regularly to Randell Hall, each one a tangible sign of care for our neighbours in need.
Because of your generosity, we were able to fill 26 stockings for Mile End Mission’s unhoused community. The clothing collected was shared with two organizations that work directly with people experiencing homelessness in Montreal and on the South Shore. Your donations made it possible for us to donate to the food bank Aux Sources du Bassin du Chambly and Posa Source des Monts, who offer services to young adults in Chambly.
On behalf of the parish of St. Stephen’s, we wish you a New Year filled with peace, hope, and God’s abundant grace.
