HOW IT CAME TO BE

They have to rent somewhere else.

01

The Need

There is currently no space to meet or hold events, so the Center rents spaces or meets in nearby parks. Its location is very accessible but needs much support to become the community space it has envisioned.

02

The Vision

The Center strives to nurture spiritual excellence within families through purposeful programs in an uplifting and inclusive environment. The Sacred Place would welcome anyone at all — whether part of the community or simply passing by, just like any other community centre — with young adults and children particularly in mind, so that people can come together more often and feel they have roots within the larger community.

03

The Transformation

Come back soon. [Placeholder per 19 Aug call.]
