Amidst all the division in the world, Night Ministry does what we have been doing for six decades. We listen. ve and acceptance to everyone
Our work is needed now more than ever before. The U.S. Surgeon General issued a 2023 report on Our Epidemic of Loneliness and Isolation. Alienation lays waste to hearts and dreams, and night-time is when its impact is most felt.
Night Ministry's open-hearted listening is a balm. Every night on the streets and on the phones, we offer the unusual gift of non-judgmental, compassionate presence and attention. It turns out that authentic listening is healing.
Help us to heal our beloved City and world, one encounter at a time. Your donation or monthly subscription makes your love visible in partnering with us as we make the Great Love visible to each heart. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
