This Christmas, every gift will be doubled to help prevent homelessness

Homelessness is on the rise amongst new refugees in London.

David’s experience—arriving in London alone, vulnerable, and at risk of homelessness —highlights the urgent need for compassion and support.

Thanks to people like you, David’s situation as a new refugee turned out differently. But there are many more in London who end up homeless.

As followers of Jesus, we have an amazing opportunity to bring hope into this crisis. He calls his church to respond with love and action to those, like David, who are often overlooked and forgotten.

The situation is critical, and we must act now. This Christmas, can you help someone like David find a home, and the hope of Jesus with a gift today?

This Christmas, for every new refugee you generously help, your donation will be matched and help someone else. 

So today, your gift will have 2x the impact, going twice as far to help people who are displaced receive gospel hope.

Donate

bring hope to people at risk of homelessness

Your donation will help us launch this urgent ministry, and help set up new short-term accommodation and enable us to house new refugees at immediate risk of rough sleeping for six months.

Your gift today will help us make sure that the building is warm and welcoming for guests, by creating eight homely bedrooms. We will also be creating communal spaces to help build community, and to give opportunities to share the gospel.

With your support, and through our new ministry to people like David, together we will provide a safe short term home where they can find practical support, community and experience the love of Christ.

We have a huge opportunity of sharing Jesus with people who are displaced, and to offer support. As churches, we can help them so that they do not end up on the streets.” Marlen, LCM Missionary
