Inn From the Cold
Every night, Inn From the Cold provides overnight shelter to 30-60 homeless children, women and men through 65 participating churches throughout Calgary. The host church offers a safe place to sleep and provides a warm bed, 2 hot meals (supper and breakfast) and a bagged lunch for the day. For more information, visit their website.

While we do not have the facilities to host Inn from the Cold at Southview, we have the opportunity to staff an extra Inn each month at First Alliance Church. About 20 - 25 volunteers are required to help over a 20-hour period, with different shifts available between 4:30 pm until 11 am the following day.
If you are interested in volunteering for Inn From the Cold, please contact Audrey MacDougall at 403-256-8121.

Every month, Southview provides meals at The Mustard Seed. A portion of our Benevolent Offering is used to pay for ingredients for a wholesome meal planned by The Seed's kitchen, and the Southview family them prepares and serves the meal. You, your family (children 10+ years) or a small group can help prepare the food from 4 - 6:30 pm, help serve the meal from 6:30 - 8:30 pm . . . or you can do both!
