SPM provides lunches on Saturdays to 320 residents of Lawrence Ave. East and Morningside Housing buildings, as well as Christmas and Thanksgiving celebrations. It also provides for their needs in the capacity of furniture, mattresses, clothing, kitchen items, cleaning supplies, and other items. SPM has gained the trust of the communities in Scarborough, and now provides spiritual guidance as well as love, compassion, and friendship. During COVID, SPM distributed door to door lunches as well as groceries to alleviate the lack of Food Banks’ donations to this community. SPM has also provided books, puzzles, games, and more to help reduce their feelings of loneliness during a worldwide pandemic. SPM serves also Mornelle community by providing weekly dinners (restarting soon due to COVID) , a Christmas toy drive (150 toys in ’21), a Christmas party for kids , and helps organize March break and summer camps .

Share life, faith, hope and Jesus at Alpha . Alpha is an 11-week course that creates a space, online or in person, where people are excited to bring their friends for a conversation about life, faith and Jesus. What is Alpha? Alpha is a way to inspire and equip churches to create a space where people from any background can encounter Jesus. The same Alpha content is run all over the world, by Christians of all traditions, and provides a common expression of faith. What does an Alpha Session look like? 1 Connection At each 2-2.5 hour session, there is a time of connection over refreshments and/or drinks, where possible. 2 Content The time of connection is followed by a talk on a subject central to the Christian faith. They explore the big issues of life and faith and unpack the basics of Christian belief, addressing questions like “Who is Jesus?”, “Why and how do I pray?” and “How does God guide us?” 3 Conversation After the talk, participants divide into pre-arranged small groups, in which they remain for the duration of the Alpha course. The groups provide participants with opportunity to discuss the talk in an environment where each person is free to ask or say whatever they wish. What topics does Alpha cover? Is there more to life than this? Who is Jesus? Why did Jesus die? How can I have faith? Why and how do I pray? Why and how do I read the Bible? How does God guide us? Who is the Holy Spirit? What does the Holy Spirit do? How can I be filled with the Holy Spirit? How can I make the most of the rest of my life? How can I resist evil? Why and how should I tell others? Does God heal today?
