Hello, everyone! Thank you for checking out this first edition of our newsletter - The Dale Digest. If you have subscribed it is likely that you are connected to The Dale in some way, but if not here is a little about us: The Dale Ministries is a community organization and church without walls based in Parkdale, Toronto. We seek to create spaces of belonging in which all people, particularly those who are marginalized, are encouraged to participate fully, to the best of their abilities and journey together toward a deeper experience of the life God has given us. In order to do this work we partner with a lot of different people to share space and resources. All of our funding comes from the generous gifts of our donors.
The Dale staff team is composed of four women! Erinn Oxford is our Executive Director and Pastor. Joanna Moon is Lead Community Worker. Olivia Scott and Meagan Knight are both community workers.




Our community is vibrant and growing. We are made up of people who live locally here in Parkdale and come to our programming (which includes church, bible study, meal programs, outreach, and community building activities). Our network expands far and wide with people all over Canada and beyond who touch us with their love and prayer. We are so grateful for our huge community, all who participate in their own way.
This newsletter will primarily be written by Meagan and Olivia! However, we will seek to feature pieces written by other members of The Dale - staff and community. Our goal is to publish a newsletter quarterly (or more). It will include information such as events that have happened in the past couple of months, historical information about Parkdale and The Dale, community and staff features, our calendar, partner profiles, and more. If you have any requests of what you would like to see, please leave a comment at the end of this newsletter! We love to hear from you.
