Our history
Our Legacy in Winnipeg
The Salvation Army’s roots in Winnipeg run deep, dating back to December 1886. Since those early days, the Army has lived out its mission of “soup, soap, and salvation,” recognizing that true spiritual hope often begins with meeting basic human needs.
For over a century, The Salvation Army has been a steadfast presence in the city—pioneering social services from the first incorporated Grace Hospital in Canada (1904) to vital programs such as community and family services, disaster relief, and support for vulnerable populations.
Living Hope Community Church at 51 Morrow Avenue
Our chapter in this legacy began with the opening of the Barbara Mitchell Community & Resource Centre in July 2012. In late spring 2013, Living Hope Community Church made its home at 51 Morrow Avenue, transforming the space into a vibrant place of worship and service.
Here, within these walls, we continue to live out the meaning of “Living Hope”—offering compassion, belonging, and practical support to everyone who walks through our doors.
