Our Charity ran a fifty bed Men's Hostel and a community drop-in "Harvest Time Cafe" that ran seven nights a week feeding up to one hundred homeless.

We lost the use of our building in downtown Toronto, and are now creating a new home in the country side near Hamilton, Cambridge and Guelph. This will provide a place of refreshment, renewal, and restoration to the glory of God.
