About us
Inspiring Hope, Building Community With over 40 years of experience, Kelowna's Gospel Mission has witnessed the profound impact of homelessness firsthand. From humble beginnings of offering coffee and conversation at Kelowna City Park, we have evolved to provide housing facilities, meals, and comprehensive support services, adapting to the changing needs of those we serve. Our journey has taught us a vital lesson: individuals experiencing homelessness need more than just basic necessities. They need to be heard, seen, and valued as unique individuals with their own stories and aspirations. As one of the longest-operating charities dedicated to addressing homelessness in the central Okanagan, we understand that genuine community is the key to wholeness. Rooted in our faith and driven by action, we are committed to finding healing together in the broken places. Kelowna's Gospel Mission is a Christ-centered organization that fosters an authentic sense of belonging and hope. We invite you to join us in being part of positive change for our city and province. Through giving and volunteering, you can contribute to our mission of inspiring hope and building a stronger, more compassionate community.

At Kelowna’s Gospel Mission, we strive to meet people with compassion, creating spaces of hope and connection. This Easter, your support helps us serve more than meals—it fosters belonging. Watch Carmen Rempel share how small changes, like serving food family-style, restore dignity and joy to the table. 🙏 Donate today: https://lnkd.in/gRVUXYp4 #KelownasGospelMission #HopeStartsWithYou #Easter #Mission #Donations #Donors #Volunteers #Compassion
