With a postal strike still continuing a number of organizations including ourselves have made arrangements for donations to be made via other options rather than the mail.

For St. Columba Church donations see options on our Giving page.

If you are seaching for a way to give a Chrsitmas gift to family or friends that you would usually mail a gift to, consider a gift in support of an Anglican or United affiliated charity here in Canada or around the world. You can usually make a donation by phone or online.

Mission and Service (M&S) United Church of Canada: General donations can be directed to M&S (Missions) along with your St. Columba donations or to specific programs and projects with Gifts with Vision. There is also a specific Advent donation feature directed to children in need donate online or phone 1-800-465-3771.
