You don't need a building, a budget or a title — just two or three people, a consistent spot, and a willingness to show up. Here's how our groups start.

Questions people ask

How do I join an outreach group?

Find your city on the cities page and show up — first-timers are welcome. In Hamilton, Love on Hamilton meets every Tuesday at 7:00 PM at 75 John St N.

What if there is no group near me?

Start one. Two or three people meeting at the same place and time each week is enough, and we offer coaching.

Do I need experience?

No. You can watch and pray first, and nobody is pushed to talk before they are ready.
