The Pinawa Christian Fellowship (PCF), a multidenominational congregation recognized by the Anglican Church of Canada, Mennonite Church Manitoba, The Presbyterian Church in Canada and the United Church of Canada, participated in the 2016 Relay for Life in Pinawa on June 4.  The 11 team members participated “in Jesus’ name” to support cancer survivors, raise funds for cancer research, and increase the profile of the congregation in the community. Many members of the congregation have either had cancer or know somebody who has had to wrestle with this disease. PCF does not own a church building, but worships in a school gymnasium. Over $2000 was raised by the team. Congratulations!
