Outreach is important to the life of our congregation. Members of the congregation offer their time and talent to many very worthy missions, as well as dedicating a percentage of their general offerings to Outreach, allocated approximately 50/50 to local and worldwide projects. Over time we have supported numerous projects that lend a helping hand to the disadvantaged.

Local Missions

Local missions we currently support include: The Dam, the Open Door mission at Square One, Peel Children's Centre, Our Place Peel, Mavis Road Homeless Shelter, and Vita Manor—addressing the needs of youth, women in distress, inner city communities, and the homeless. Streetsville United Church is also a founding member of Foodpath and Pathway whose Breakfast Club we support.

Worldwide Missions

Worldwide missions currently funded include: support for a well-digging project in Cambodia through HOPE International, Pueblito, the Canadian Foodgrains Bank, Sleeping Children Around the World, and Doctors without Borders.

India Project: We have completed funding a five-year project in India. This project assisted two villages in India through the work of HOPE International. The following links provide details about this project: Village Update, and Family Record
