The North End Lives: A Journey Through Poverty Terrain

by Hugo Neufeld

In one of the oldest neighborhoods of Hamilton, Ontario, Hugo and Doreen Neufeld worked among residents of the city’s North End at a community center called the Welcome Inn. For nearly 18 years, the Neufelds ministered to their "big-hearted neighbors," most of whom lived below the poverty line. The stories in this collection recount the struggles and giftedness of the North Enders the Neufelds have known and served. Their vivid experiences of love and friendship powerfully demonstrate that the Good News to the poor is also Good News to the rich.
