Recognizing the radical hospitality God has extended towards all of humanity, we envision a movement of people committed to the work of radical hospitality and celebration of diversity rooted in Christ and to relationships characterized by confession, forgiveness and reconciliation. We see a movement of people made up of the rich and the poor (from neighbours who own businesses to neighbours who panhandle), the old and the young (from newborns to the dying) and men and women. We see a movement where there is greater representation of people from the different ethnic groups who make up this neighbourhood – where people from Asian and African and Latino and Aboriginal and Caucasian cultures are represented at every level of leadership and involvement. We see a movement of people who look out for the least of these among us and stand with them.

An oasis of hope in the centre of the African HIV/AIDS pandemic, Beautiful Gate cares for Lesotho’s most vulnerable children. The stories about how these children come to Beautiful Gate are shocking and gut wrenching to hear. Only shear desperation could result in such atrocities. But Beautiful Gate is a safe place, where babies and toddlers are cared for and loved so they can survive until a day they find their way home with a family, or so that they can die with dignity. Monthly donations provide consistent and regular cash flow that help Beautiful Gate care-givers plan for the core needs of the children. This includes supplies for children's houses, medical supplies for acute and chronic care and house-mother, nurse and maintenance crew salaries.
