Local Outreach
Jesus calls each of us to a high level of involvement in the lives of those around us, with the challenge He issues in Acts. 1:8. It goes beyond loving our neighbours to also witnessing in love and power to those in our region and in the world. Hillside supports several local outreach ministries within the Tri-Cities. You can find out more about them by going to their websites.

Hillside is strategically located to serve Coquitlam residents who depend upon this service and this is a fantastic way for Hillside to show God’s love to vulnerable families and individuals in our community.
Volunteer
Share Food Bank at Hillside has opportunities for new volunteers to serve on Wednesdays between 10:30 am and 2:30 pm. During this time, the tasks will include food distribution, welcoming and registering new users, helping people with their bags, bagging bread and produce, and handing out food to families in need. If you are interested, please email Krissie Sondles at krissie.sondles@sharesociety.ca
