Connect with the coordinator
Catholic Street Missionaries
Overview
Open to adults and youth (with guardian permission) looking for a meaningful faith-based challenge.
The Sleepout is a profound annual event that moves faith into action. Participants commit to spending one night outside in downtown Vancouver to gain a small glimpse into the reality faced by our homeless neighbors. This experience is designed to open hearts and build empathy through personal sacrifice.
Each participant will create a personal fundraising page. All proceeds directly support the Catholic Street Missionaries in their vital work of bringing the Gospel message of God's love, hope, and practical aid to those living on the streets. Register today for this transformative challenge.
