3. THE FÊTE
St Philips is involved with several community projects, and to
support this work the annual fête allows for the following;
Feeding the unemployed men on Wetton Road every morning
from Monday to Friday
Feeding the homeless at Flamingo Crescent at a local community
hall on Friday evenings: we wash their children, and clothe them in
clean clothes. We then feed the families with sandwiches and soup.
After this we have ‘Sunday School’ for the children, teach the adults
and have prayer time with the adults
We help a children’s home in Ottery, some are orphans; some
have been placed there and are HIV positive
St Philips is also connected to The Warehouse, a large outreach
station which reaches out to some of the most vulnerable in our
community www.warehouse.org.za
