The Welcome Home 2.8

The Welcome Home is a concrete response to the invitation of the gospel to make the choice Jesus made – the choice in favor of the poor.

It is a small inner city mission located in Winnipeg, Manitoba offering a range of programs to support people in body and spirit.

It is home to young adults and to Redemptorists who live together in community for a year or so to share in mission

It is a dynamic family of volunteers, religious, and neighbors held together by belonging, worship, and love.

It is a place to discover that the poor and abandoned are neither poor nor abandoned.

Since opening in 1993, it has touched many lives and continues to offer an open door for many more.

The bottom line is that The Welcome Home is about being “church” today. It invites all of us to see with the eyes of faith the presence of Christ in others, especially those most in need of God’s compassion and love. As one of our visitor’s put it, “It is about time our church did something like this for others”.
