Mission Summary

Abbotsford’s Cyrus Centre is a resource centre & emergency shelter for at-risk youth 18 & under, responding to the adverse diversity of identified youth whose lives are already fractured. 
Basic living and resources we take for granted, some have had to degrade themselves for.  Victims of sexual exploitation or addictions, some had become homeless to escape unsafe family environments, some are runaways, some simply abandoned.  Increasingly, the Centre sees youth from the widening, stigmatizing strata of poverty.  They have homes but little food in the cupboards within them. 

Mandated to welcome all, the Centre shows no prejudices of gender, race and culture.  Cyrus Centre staff and volunteers span many ages and cultural fabrics as well. 

Youth have access to food, shelter, clothing, shower and laundry facilities, access to telephones, computers,  employment coaching and emergency dental care. Thousands of meals are served each year. Bible instruction and faith discussions are held and we have seen many decisions for Christ (Praise God)!
A prime goal is to see families restored, so support extends beyond youth and embraces their families as well, working towards a healthy re-unification and exiting street life.
Reflecting a compassionate, supporting environment and offering up equally of hands and hearts, Cyrus Centre guides these young citizens of tomorrow into stabilized, sustainable futures and hope-filled destinies. We can be best described as a ministry of “Just Being There”.

The Cyrus Centre is directed by Les who is supported by his wife Kristin.  They have been married for over 29 years and have three grown children and three grandchildren.
