WHAT?

CITIES for CHRIST is the first of its kind in Canada a free-standing, self-supporting, pastoral counseling ministry. It is patterned after EMERGE Ministries Inc., one of the largest Christian mental health care facilities in the United States, located in Akron, Ohio.

WHERE?

We are located at 1199 Hamilton Rd. - South/East of the Hamilton/Highbury intersection.

WHY?

Two thousand years ago, so the story goes, there was a man who was robbed and beaten, and left for dead on the side of the road. Many people passed him by that day, without helping. Finally, a Samaritan came along and tended to this man's needs, and took him to an inn. There the Samaritan left some coins with the inn keeper and said, "Look after him, and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have." Luke 10:35. Interestingly, enough is that also two thousand years ago a baby was born, not in an inn, (he was turned away, remember), but nearby in a stable. A baby that grew up to be a man who ended up being beaten and left for dead on a cross, thus paying for the sins and healing of all mankind.

CITIES for CHRIST is committed to honour and obey God's desire for us to be like that Samaritan Inn Keeper to the community of London and area and this nation.

HOW?

Through the training and development of counselors and co-leaders, as well as through recruitment of volunteers, dedicated with a heart to helping people and families.

• Individual donations
