VISION

Christcity Lighthouse seeks to serve families and individuals in need of a support system, helping them to overcome barriers, and empowering them to move from poverty to cultural, social, economic, and spiritual prosperity.

We are agents of reconciliation addressing social, spiritual, and economic inequities, particularly those faced by low-income and immigrant families. We do this by reflecting Jesus’ love, creating opportunities for change, meeting people’s physical, intellectual, and spiritual needs, and improving the holistic health of our communities.

We serve community members who are unable, from time to time, to provide adequately for themselves, those facing issues stemming from poverty, including food insecurity, unemployment, and housing. Some of the people we serve may be in need of treatment for mental or physical health conditions, some may be struggling with family problems, while others may be experiencing loneliness and hopelessness.

We seek to bridge these gaps and create a paradigm shift for those we serve, by changing lives, growing communities, and creating resources that address these urgent needs.

FOCUS

• Food security through collective kitchen, and family food hampers
• Education and skill development through occupational training
• Community wellness through group activities, health appointments, and recreation
• Counselling through employment, housing, life and spiritual coaching
• Gospel advancement through relational evangelism

Our services are trauma-informed, which means we recognize and are responsive to the impact of trauma, and strive to make sure people feel physically, psychologically, and emotionally safe.
