Community Outreach Programs

Community Programs

  • Scott Mission Food Distribution

    In partnership with Scott Mission, our biweekly food distribution is a space where neighbours care for neighbours. Many in our city are facing food insecurity and making hard choices that affect their ability to put food on the table. Together, we seek to ease that burden by sharing nutritious groceries in a way that honours dignity and fosters community. This is one of the ways we live out care and compassion alongside those around us.

  • Meals for Neighbours

    Our Meal for Neighbours Program prepares and delivers fresh, homemade meals to individuals in Scarborough facing challenges related to addiction and mental illness. It’s a meaningful opportunity to extend care and dignity, whether by cooking or helping transport meals, so that this community can experience the love and hope of Christ.

Parents are invited to bring their little ones to play while they connect, ask questions, and grow together in faith.

  • Toronto Alliance Church Meals

    Bayview Glen Church partners with Toronto Alliance Church (TAC) to care for individuals experiencing homelessness in downtown Toronto by offering sit-down hot meals and creating a space of dignity, warmth, and connection. Every 3–4 months, Bayview Glen helps provide food for up to 200 people, including sandwich bags and hot meals. Our SERVE teams prepare and transport the meals, which are then served and distributed by dedicated staff and volunteers at TAC. This ministry is a small but meaningful way we extend the love of Jesus to those in need.
