Hua Lin
Hua Lin (Helen) serves as bookkeeper for TJM, working part time in our offices. Helen became a Christian in her homeland of China - a place that is very hostile towards the Gospel. She worked in the field of accounting for several years there, and came to Canada with her husband and daughter three years ago.
Volunteer Workers
Numerous unpaid volunteers also serve in the work of the Mission on a regular basis. Some assist in outreach and evangelism, while others provide "behind the scenes" support. These dedicated helpers are essential to the work of The Toronto Jewish Mission.
