Give with Hope
With your support: prayers, gifts, time and care (on the front lines and behind the scenes), our community is able to continue building safe, encouraging spaces in which every one of us can truly belong — and most deeply become who we were born to be.
We ask that you continue to support us and give with a hopeful heart.
Our mission is to build community, provide spiritual care, and bridge the gap between unhoused and housed individuals.
For 30 years, we have gathered in the Boston Common to celebrate, sing, and pray together, every Sunday.
Building relationships
In addition to our Sunday worship on the Common each week, we spend three days out on the streets, in alley-ways, and in libraries, train and bus stations, meeting folks where they are and expanding the hearts of us all.
We also gather together inside every Wednesday and Friday to make art, rest, share good food & great music, pray and — most of all — enjoy the company of each other just exactly as we are, no matter who, or how, or where we may be our life’s journey.
All are welcome! Come join us?
A culture of belonging
We believe that beyond welcome lies belonging — and belonging is what we aim for every day, for everyone.
30+ partner congregations join us for lunch and worship every year
Our partner church and youth groups come Sunday after Sunday to provide a hearty lunch for all and to join us in open-hearted worship on the Boston Common. (Learn more about common cathedral Sunday worship)
More than 550 youth and adults participate in CityReach
From November - March, we bring young people from across the Commonwealth together for an overnight, immersion experience of working-with and learning-from people who have experienced homelessness. (Learn more about CityReach here.)
Hundreds of hot and healthy meals are prepared, and shared, throughout the year
All of our gatherings includue at least one hot and healthy meal made by our community, for our community. (Learn how to volunteer with us)
