About Outflow

Walk with us February 22, 2020

Outflow Ministry Inc. is a ministry of compassion. Everyone involved shares a desire to help people in need to have restored dignity, renewed life, and realized hope.

The foundation of Outflow is our Christian faith and our shared desire is built on this foundation. It is our belief that every person has God’s image stamped on her or him, meaning that everyone should be able to experience dignity, life, and hope.

Outflow wants to make a positive difference in the lives of people not because they are our clients, but because they are our guests, our neighbours, and our friends.

It is that relationship that pushes us to innovate and create life changing opportunities to reach out & offer a helping hand that lifts individuals out of their difficult circumstances through shelter, food, housing, dental care and now training & employment.

We need your support to continue this journey of restoring dignity, renewed life, and hope.
