Free!Style Events
It's easy to get involved in your community with Free!Style, the Abbotsford Vineyard's store on wheels, stocked with quality clothing to hand out to people in need.
In Free!Style's first year, we have not only sorted through mountains of donations, we have taken Free!Style to the Peardonville House Women's Recovery Centre and the Cyrus Center, an inner city teen drop-in centre. We have also hosted a number of incredible events at the the Abbotsford Food Bank. When people receive such a generous service, their defenses fall to the ground and they're driven to ask what motivates us. The potential with Free!Style is to serve and connect with your community, even your neighbors, to share with them God's transforming love.
Upcoming Events
This season we hosted two successful events at the Food Bank in collaboration with members of Ross Road Community Church. We also visited the Cyrus Centre, served supper, and provided outfits to kids who really needed them.

Join the Free!Style Committee
The goal of the Free!Style Committee is to involve people where they are best able to serve. Many people are eager to join, but cannot always commit for the whole length of an event. By being part of the committee, you can participate as you are able and even take some ownership in a specific area.
For example, if you join the Refreshments group you will work with other volunteers to prepare refreshments for the different events on the calendar. For some events, it may be as simple as baking cookies and procuring a donated fruit platter. Other events may include a small budget and involve collecting all the items for a barbecue.
Committee meetings are held on the first Monday evening of every month.
