Описание книги

With Holy chutzpah and a bold trust in miracles led Morris and Annie Zeidman to found The Scott Mission in 1941. With the help of their children, they built one of Toronto’s best-loved inner city ministries: “the Miracle on Spadina.” Through the eyes of their daughter Elaine Zeidman Markovic, a remarkable story unfolds of blessings, heartbreak and personal triumph—and the presence of God who never failed, even in the darkest hours, to renew hope and restore their faith.

On the Mission

On Family and the Mission

How have your experiences with cancer changed your perspective?

What priorities have shifted?

Has there been a particularly difficult lesson to learn?

In retrospect, have you changed the way you see your calling at the Scott Mission?

Has this affected your view of the people you minister to here at the Mission?

Where do you see the Mission moving in the future?

When you think of the Mission, what remains central for you?

You must have a greater awareness now of the challenges that Morris and Annie faced in maintaining the character and integrity of the work

How has it been serving under a series of very different leaders in the past few decades?

Will you stay on to help maintain the family presence at the Mission?

How do you think people see the family today?

Introduction: Meeting Elaine

.....

“You never know when it will come in useful.” Everybody has said it sometime or other. The Scott Institute has proved the truth of the observation.

Since last spring they have had a pair of good crutches about the place. But nobody seemed to need them. What to do with them has often been the suggestion.
