Our Vision
Jacob's Well is a faith-based non-profit located in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver.
We seek mutually transformative friendship and equip others to do the same in their own context.
​
Jacob’s Well is a “living room space” in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. It is a place where community members gather to give and receive friendship and support. It is where friends become family. We come together to celebrate the good and lament the bad. At Jacob’s Well we support each other as we laugh and cry.
​
We welcome all who come to our door and there is room for everyone at our table.
