Thank You, Khalsa Aid!

JVS is so grateful to Khalsa Aid for its generous donations of sandwiches, sleeping bags, tarps and much more to our ministry of feeding, clothing and supporting the street community in Victoria.

A New Journey: Free Counseling for the Homeless

We are now providing free counseling to people we meet who want to move on in their life journey. We are excited about this because it extends our level of support beyond meeting the immediate needs of the street community.

If you would like to support this work, please see Ways to Give

Our Office at Anawim House!

Our office at Anawim House is being provided rent-free thanks to the leadership of Anawim House. We've met with many members of the street community struggling with a variety of issues from trying to get required ID documents and housing, to seeking counselling to move on in their lives. The office gives us a quiet and serene place to chat with clients in confidence. 

Frank Woods, Phil Large, Doug Kelk and Dylan Kelk were the "burly guys" moving the Justice Van Society into our office, while Rita Silverstein played a huge role in making it ship shape not to mention providing fresh coffee and apple crumble!

We Love Our JVS Van!

Thanks to your generosity through the GoFundMe campaign and the financial contributions of many others, we purchased a larger, more efficient van to better serve Victoria's homeless! Our 2019 GMC Savana cargo van allows for more storage, as well as easier access to food, clothes, sleeping bags and all the necessities we directly deliver to the homeless. The photos below show our president Frank Woods in action.

We feel very blessed and inspired by how God's hand has been on this ministry since it began in October 2018. We so appreciate your ongoing support through financial contributions, food and clothing, and your prayers. We will keep you updated on the needs of those living on the street.
