Meal Program offered to local residents By Murray Green
A new Meals Program has been launched at CityLights Church that is designed to augment the Camrose Food Bank, supplying much-needed food to those around Camrose who need it most. “Our main service is providing precooked meals to those who can’t afford quality food, don’t have the time to prepare it, or simply can’t get out of their homes,” said Bryden Russell, one of the organizers. “Everyone is welcome to contact the church to get on the list–we won’t turn anyone away.” A professional chef prepares the meals at the CityLights industrial kitchen and then volunteers deliver the meals to anywhere around Camrose. “Our biggest problem is not enough people to send the meals to. We have a freezer full of ready-to-go food with nobody to feed it to,” added Bryden. “The gravitational pull of human nature is toward self, not toward others, but we believe the love of Jesus

calls us as a church to reach out and help our community. It is our desire at CityLights to share the love of Jesus in this practical way and to help any and all that we can,” shared lead Pastor Clayton Milgate from CityLights Church. The program has just started and it may run indefinitely. “Our goal is to reach the hungry, shut-ins and lonely members of our
community, or anyone else who’s interested. A meal (with or without a visit) can go a long way to improving someone’s life. Just like God’s love is free, our meals come at no cost and with no strings attached.” Roxanne Forsyth is the chef who is spear-heading this new initiative along with Pastor Milgate and Bryden at CityLights. “I wanted to be a part
of a ministry that could possibly be of help to others in my church and my community. But what could I possibly offer anyone? I’m a Red Seal Chef and I’m currently making frozen meals. I thought maybe I could make some frozen meals that could stock the church’s freezer that would be available to anyone who might need a home-cooked meal at no charge,” she explained. “I asked Pastor Clayton if this was something I could do, and to see if a need could be met and I got started. My mom and I started purchasing groceries and containers and putting together turkey dinners for the Christmas season that could easily be reheated. CityLights Church has provided an amazing industrial kitchen that allows us to do it all the right way.” Contact CityLights Church at citylights church@hotmail.com or text 587-602-0910 to be put on the list or to receive more information.
