The Downsview & Rexdale Summer Sports Program, part of YU’s Jane-Finch ministry, runs in several locations each week throughout the summer. I dropped by Stanley Greene Park, a beautiful location with basketball nets, grass to play soccer, football, and volleyball, and skateboard ramps.

"Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream. It shall not fear when heat comes; and its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit."
- Jeremiah 17:7,8

"It is precisely when we see and experience poverty — whether far away, close by, or in our hearts — that we need to become the Church; that is, hold hands as brothers and sisters, confess our own brokenness and need, forgive one another, heal one another's wounds, and gather around the table of Jesus for the breaking of the bread. Thus, as the poor we recognize Jesus, who became poor for us."
–Henri Nouwen
