Contagious Hope: Episode 5 (Sanctuary)

Contagious Hope is a podcast series specially created for Lenten reflection by the Rev. Alexa Gilmour from Toronto.  On this fifth week of Lent, Rev. Alexa speaks with Greg Cook and Lorraine Lam, outreach workers at Sanctuary Ministries of Toronto; a place in the heart of Toronto where you can go to be seen and celebrated, walked with and cared for. Guided by the Gospel, the heart and centre of this community are the very people who are often excluded in the mainstream; those experiencing poverty, lack of housing, addiction and mental health crisis. At Sanctuary, they can get meals, health clinic support, art programs, street outreach, Sunday services, and so much more.

Contagious Hope was created with assistance from the McGeachey Senior Scholarship, administered by the United Church of Canada Foundation.  The series is edited by Peter Restivo.  For feedback, please email gilmouralexa@gmail.com
