The Mission to Seafarers Southern Ontario is part of the largest non-denominational, multi-faith ministry in the world.  While we were founded in 1856 through the work of many Anglican clergy, in 2016 we serve all seafarers regardless of their religious background.  

It is our privilege to assist the people who ensure that 90% of all the goods we need are brought to our shores as safely possible in the most difficult and dangerous working conditions in the world.  Ours is the "Ministry of Small Gestures": we visit every ship that arrives in our ports; we bring bags of chocolate as our welcome; we assist with local transportation for shopping, medical visits, and recreation, as well as bringing them to our Seafarer Centres.  We provide free WiFi at all our Centres.  We offer a friendly ear that will listen, commiseration in sadness and celebration in joy.  Ours is a ministry of hospitality where no seafarers will be left behind, where they know they are not isolated, and are valued by the world.  

Through your donations, you participate in The Ministry of Small Gestures: keeping the Wifi running, the coffee hot, and enabling our staff and volunteers to continue to do the work of hospitality that is so important to the Seafarers.  On behalf of Seafarers everywhere: thank you for your donation!
