Our Journey
2021
The Beginning
Amid the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, a small group of 10 young adults from Korean immigrant churches in Edmonton came together to provide support for the homeless. They began by preparing and sharing meals, along with offering conversations and prayers, bringing warmth and hope to those in need.
