Siloam Mission Service

The Winnipeg Sai Centre has been carrying out this service activity for several years, both initiated and sustained by two devotees at the Sai Centre.. The service is held once a month on every Saturday. The task is to cook and serve a warm meal at the Siloam mission. In general, the cooking is carried out in the morning over a three hour period. Typically, the devotees prepare macaroni and cheese, mixed vegetables, and beans. The items are stored in an oven until they are served at noon. Siloam provides additional items such as bread or buns, salad and dessert to the menu. This makes for a full warm and sumptuous meal for the under-privileged who frequent the mission.

Harvest Service

The Winnipeg Harvest service activity is on every Wednesday of the week and takes place in the basement of the Sai Centre. It starts with the receipt of food sent to the Centre by truck. The window of receiving can vary between 12 to 1:30 pm. It is quite challenging to receive and unload the food items as they have to be transported to the basement. We generally have a group of three volunteers, especially retired devotees, to carry out this activity. Once the food is received and arranged on the tables, this group of volunteers leave.
