The Scott Mission

The Scott Mission is a Christian non-denominational charity organization in Ontario, Canada, providing services to poor, homeless, and vulnerable people.

[1] The mission is based in downtown Toronto and aims to offer practical, emotional, and spiritual support for thousands of people each year.

Morris Zeidman, an ordained Presbyterian minister who was born in Częstochowa, Poland, and converted to Christianity from Judaism,[2] founded The Scott Mission with his wife Anne in 1941.

The Lodge is located on 113 acres (46 ha) on the Blue Mountain overlooking Georgian Bay, and was a gift to the Mission in honour of founder Rev.

Morris Zeidman, was appointed the new superintendent of the Presbyterian Mission to the Jews in 1920, following Scott's death and Rohold's decision to return to Jerusalem.
