Woodroffe United Church ... we are not alone, we live in God's world.
... a monthly Sunday evening gathering for interested people to discuss interesting subjects with interesting people – over coffee/tea, and a sweet.
Woodroffe United Café
On January 26, the Woodroffe United Café was held in the Banquet Room from 7 to 8PM. Dave Chaplin, on a CIDA secondment, and Milan Kollár, the Slovak ambassador to Canada, described the part played by Canada in 2002-2004 to counsel the new country of Slovakia (1993) as they created a governmental agency to provide money and expertise to the international community. Slovaks wanted to ‘pay forward’ the help and support they had received from countries, like Canada, to emerging countries who could benefit from Slovakian experience. The coffee, tea and poppy seed desserts and the conversation made it worth the trek!
