BLCF Cafe - Bloor Lansdowne Community Dinner - Needs Volunteers To Help Feed The Homeless

Bloor Lansdowne Community Dinner, renamed in December 2009 as BLCF Cafe, was established in January, 2008 by and is run under the auspices of Bloor Lansdowne Christian Fellowship Church. On Wednesday evening's BLCF Cafe Community Dinner feeds and fellowships with over 100 homeless and marginalized people weekly, (over 5,000 a year).
This is not a “soup kitchen’ program. It’s more like inviting neighbours over for dinner. The tables are set, the ambiance is friendly and we serve our guests at the table restaurant-style, hearty and homemade meals and tasty desserts, with a spiritual break in-between. Dinner is served from 6 to 8 PM. Throughout the dinner,there is live music: Folk, Blue Grass, Gospel, usually featuring our friend Terry Sywanyk, guitarist / vocalist and songwriter with the duo 'A Cup of Cold Water'.

Bullied to death: They committed suicide because of bullying


"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." - Ephesians 4:29-32
