These kids come every year from a high school in Abbotsford, “Mennonite Educational Institute”.
They are enrolled in a Grade 12 class called “Missions 12” and they spend time volunteering with the Gleaners here in town. When they need a break from chopping onions, they wander the streets of Oliver doing random acts of kindness including handing out flowers and washing the windows of the businesses downtown.
I don’t know how many years they have been coming but they are always a lovely group of teens and it is a pleasure to meet them.
