The Salvation Army Barrhaven Church & Community Centre

Most people recognize the red-and-white shield of The Salvation Army as representing a social services organization that responds to disasters, feeds the homeless, and runs thrift stores. Many do not realize the underlying purpose of those efforts is rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

As a local branch of The Salvation Army, Barrhaven Church and Community Centre aims to bring help, hope and salvation to everyone without discrimination. Our church is a place to build relationships with people who care, a place to belong to a community of faith, and a place to become a person of purpose.

Be a Bell Ringer with The Salvation Army this Christmas Season
The Christmas season at The Salvation Army means bell ringing to raise funds for our community programming. With its iconic red kettle, The Salvation Army’s Christmas Kettle Campaign counts on the dedication of volunteers like you to help make a difference in the lives of others.

This year, we have expanded our Christmas kettles to include locations in Barrhaven, Stittsville, Kanata, and Bayshore Mall, where shoppers can make a financial donation. Volunteer bell ringers supervise the kettles, ring jingle bells (provided) or wish people a “Merry Christmas” to bring Christmas cheer and offer a smile and a thank you as people walk by and donate.

Volunteer opportunities are available from November 16 thru to December 24! You can sign up for a volunteer shift by contacting Stefan at barrhaven.kettles@salvationarmy.ca.
