Have courage for the great sorrows of life
and patience for the small ones;
and when you have laboriously
accomplished your daily task,
go to sleep in peace.
God is awake.

-- Victor Hugo --

"Feed The Hungry"
This is a MOBILE street ministry. Many of the people served by this ministry are not even welcome in the skid road soup kitchens. We have been told by these poor hungry people, "I have not eaten in two days" and "You are saving lives down here". Bible Studies - Baptizing - Street Ministry
“Tell them I Love them”
A Catholic street ministry focusing on the downtown eastside area, have reached out specifically to the prostitutes – the “working women of the street”. Through encounters with Agape Street Ministries, they learn that Jesus loves them, and that He is the Way, and the Truth and the Life.
Our Mission: To increase the real and visible presence of Jesus within the city of Vancouver
To instill a vision of leadership centered in Jesus Christ, which has a deep commitment to our families, a few friends and then naturally extends to our places of work, the local community, Province, Country and the World.
"Building Hope is Our Mission"
Community of Hope was created to provide a place of rest, repose and renewal to those in need, through the love of Jesus Christ. The services are all free-of-charge to the public, and are aimed at alleviating the physical and spiritural hunger of those living in Vancouver's Eastside including the East Broadway corridor.

Jesus said, “Feed my sheep.” (Jn 21:15-17)

“Let us be with you on the road back”
“Let us be with you on the road back” is our tag line for StreetHope Abbotsford. Those who are saved from the street know what they need to keep going and be successful in their restoration. Restoring and transforming one life at a time is what StreetHope is all about. Show you care for people and people will be transformed. We can only give from the abundance that the Lord gives to us. StreetHope and Church Army have said YES to meeting people where they are. Jesus has met us where we were all at and has given us the tools and abundance of gifts to get the Word out. God is alive and well living in the hearts of those who serve the poor and needy in the streets of Abbotsford. “Relationship is what it is all about!”
“Go for souls, and go for the most lost”
That is what the founder of Church Army suggested over 100 years ago.  Streethope.org is a continuation of a ministry in Victoria, B.C. which has been following that advice since 1986.We love to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ but for those who are allergic to Christians we simply share His love in ways that are meaningful.  That can mean providing food or shelter or just some understanding.  If you would like to talk to us, we would be glad to hear from you.
"To show God's love in Christ by working in partnership with the church, community and those in need so that together we achieve wholeness."
The Mustard Seed Street Church began from a prayer closet in a store on Government Street in Victoria. The need of the underprivileged was so great that the ministry expanded to a building on Pandora Avenue. It began its outreach to the community as a church which soon grew to include a food bank, clothing bank, counseling and advocacy service, prison visitation and street ministry
Partners in Hope is a Christian based community group offering support to victims of harmful circumstances and dependencies as they reclaim the gift of their life.

Our Purpose
At Potter’s Place our mission is to visually, tangibly and measurably transform the downtown eastside (East Hastings Street) through the power of God. That is, to see the street people come out of their present situation of hopelessness and loss of self-worth, as evidence by their poverty, continual welfare dependency, involvement in substance abuse and addiction, prostitution and high suicidal tendencies, and have their lives restored to the gory of God.
