CITY OUTREACH
As followers of Christ, we are all called to be His ambassadors to a world in need of a Saviour. As a part of the local church in Ottawa, we have the opportunity to be Jesus’ hands and feet to our community in the Nation’s Capital. City Outreach is a key part of what we do at the Met. It is our heartbeat and our deep desire to love Ottawa intentionally with the love of Christ.
I want to serve
Community Initiatives
The Met helps provide backpacks for needy children and winter clothing for children and adults without adequate means, remembering that Jesus said that we do for the least of these we do for Him.
Bridges
We are thankful for the Lord's provision in securing a new location for our Bridges ministry, serving the disadvantaged in Chinatown area of our city. Bridges provides a meal, friendship, prayer support, and a gospel message every Monday evening from 6 pm to 7:30 pm at the Ottawa Chinese Alliance Church. Anyone interested in serving with this ministry can email Hemal Gandhi more information at [email protected]
Group Homes
MALTA and The Met partner together to bring the love of Christ to those with exceptional needs living in group homes. Many have come to faith and had their lives transformed through a Bible study held for them.
Seniors' Residences
The Met expresses love and concern for the elderly living in seniors' residences. Some folks living there follow Christ, but can no longer get out to church. Others used to go to church and are open to the message of Jesus. The Met brings monthly worship services to four seniors' residences, and Bible studies to several others.
