Members of Centennial United have been part of a larger Canadian initiative to reuse and recycle plastic milk bags which don't disintegrate in landfills. 

Milk bag mats provide comfort as a bedding alternative to sleeping on cold and wet ground for people in proverty-stricken countries such as Liberia, Cameroon, Iraq, Malawi and Tanzania. Milk bag mats are also used by health-care professionals as a substitute for an operating bed/table where resources are scarce. It takes about 400 milk bags to make one mat and we have special boards for weaving them together.

After running for over 20 years, we are looking for another church or organization to take over this outreach ministry.  We're happy to provide the training and supplies!  Reach out to [email protected] if you are interested in resuming this valuable project reaching those in need.
