Mission to Seafarers Thunder Bay
The Mission to Seafarers provides help and support to the 1.89 million crewmen and women who face danger every day to keep our global economy afloat.

The Mission to Seafarers is here to support the men and women working at sea when they need us most. And it’s not just practical support the Mission offers. We know that seafarers need emotional and frequently spiritual support too. That’s why we have a large network of ordained Port Chaplains who come on board ships, giving seafarers a listening ear and offering prayer, if needed. They can also connect seafarers to other organisations, or speak to them on their behalf.
Our mission is to care for the shipping industry’s most important asset: its people.
We are here for Seafarers.
