We exist as a community of welcome on the DTES.

Matthew 9:35-36

And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

Our identity is primarily as recipients of Jesus’ compassion extended towards us.

Our desire is to be community who sees and welcomes the other in need of this same compassion.

All of what we do extends from this identity.
