The Mennonite Disaster Service has some new office space in Winnipeg.


The doors were officially opened yesterday at the 1,500 square foot MDS extension office located on Markham Drive.


Gord Friesen is director for region five which represents Canada.


Friesen says last year's hurricane activity made it clear the old office was to small for their workers.


He adds the new office became a reality through the hard work of a lot of volunteers who helped renovate the new headquarters.
