"But seek the peace of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare." - Jeremiah 29:7

PAX North Church seeks to bring value to the communities in which we live. To do so we purposely invest our ministry energy, resource, time, and creativity into:
1    meeting the needs of our community
2    partnering with those who are seeking the peace of our community
3    promoting projects, organizations, community efforts that seek to bring value to our city

Yearly we will invest in both short term and long term projects, organizations or community efforts.
Here are two such Value Projects that we are promoting:

Street level
-
The ARK is a youth drop-in, in Halifax, dedicated to providing a presence of stability and respect to street youth. Youth who are on the streets, or are in danger of being on the streets, can go to the ARK and get both material and emotional support.
Update: PAXnorth has been privileged to serve the ARK by joining them in the heart beat of prayer and service. We are excited by the developments of growing resource support for ARK from a variety of funders; We are privileged to be able to serve them by providing 'go-fer' assistance. Picking up donated items, delivery of items, to other care providers as well as street youth in need.
If you would like to know how you can help us in our partnership with the ARK call Brad at (902)488-5362


Saturday Breakfast
Saturday Breakfast was a direct response from area churches to fill the gaps in service to those in need in our community. Several churches have committed to providing breakfast on Saturday mornings for a one month period. This initiative is spear headed by Elna Seibring, Community and outreach Pastor for:
All Nations Church

Update: Brad has been going every Saturday morning to hang out, eat breakfast, have conversations and build bridges with the guests who come.
Want to help? We could use some more bodies to serve alongside PAXnorth to take over another month as a church.
We could use a couple of regular subscriptions to Saturday's Chronicle Herald, newspaper, that our guests enjoy reading while having breakfast.
We could use a small amount of funding to put towards the costs of purchasing the need foods for this ministry.
If you are able to help- Call or email Brad (902)4885362

Under Resourced Families and at Risk Children
Kids Fest Canada - "Its in the Bag Backpacks"

Update: Kids Fest has dedicated 120 back packs to PAXnorth church, we were able to raise enought support for 30 more. These back packs come fully loaded with all the back-to-school items a student might need for their grade and school year, plus a coupon from Brooks Shoes for a new pair of running shoes! What a great way to bless students in need as well as partner with our school administrators!

We were AMAZED at the differences in schools that are only a few blocks from each other. Principles and school boards were skeptical as we approached them about giving the packs away but the results were overwhelming gratitude and excitement. Each school had a great way of handing out and celebrating the WINNERS who recieved the packs.

There was definitely some amazing moments! What happens when "It's in the Bag?"
