Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe – our BC motto for 2020 and beyond.  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Gherkins are selling t shirts and totes to raise funds for our next refugee sponsorship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gherkin volunteers (l-r) Joni, Pam, Monika & Katharine in our awesome multilingual shirts!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The t-shirt features Dr. Henry’s “Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe” motto in English, Lekwungen, French,  Chinese and Arabic.  We believe Dr. Henry’s motto reflects a strong belief in the value and importance of care and compassion for our fellow humans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
