A place of new beginnings for men trapped by addiction

Our Story

The Haven of Rest

The Haven of Rest—or The Haven—is a Christian ministry of mercy and love, dedicated to helping broken men find hope, healing, and the next step forward. The Haven is a community-based transition center and residence for homeless and addicted men, or those at-risk of becoming either.

Our vision is to help homeless and addicted men revive their lives through the word of God and Christian fellowship, enabling them to live lives of purpose, meaning, and fulfillment in their communities. 

The Haven was established in 2021 by four Christian men from Deer Lake, Newfoundland, with a heart for their community, because everyone should get a second chance.
