Care
Care is the practice. Belonging is the result.
Knox's Care Team weaves practical and pastoral care through the rhythm of the week, for members, attenders, and neighbours.
When something hard happens, a diagnosis, a loss, a stretch of loneliness, a baby on the way, you don't have to be on a list to call. You can call the office at 519-886-4150 or email knox@knoxwaterloo.ca, and the Care Connector will help you find the right next step.

Care through food
Meal support & the casserole network
Knox cooks. After a baby, a surgery, a death, or any season where a hot meal you didn't have to make is exactly the right thing, the meal ministry shows up.
Volunteers cook, deliver, and coordinate together with the Care Team. To request meal support, or to volunteer to cook, contact the office.
Beyond the building
Worship at retirement homes
Each month, Knox volunteers lead worship at eight retirement and nursing homes across Waterloo Region, making sure that the people most likely to be left out of "going to church" still have a Sunday community.
If you have a connection to a home that would welcome our visit, let the office know.
