DOXA is a ministry of Youth Unlimited GTA and we focus “to pursue kingdom partnerships with local churches in which we call young people to center their lives within the mission and message of Jesus.” At present, DOXA has four staff (Calvin Russell, Melissa Morrissey, Jeff Smyth and Lester Salangsang) and our desire is to continue to add personnel so we can further expand our three areas of focus: DOXA Gatherings Through collaboration and partnerships with local churches and youth ministries, our desire is to provide monthly youth gatherings that are engaging, interactive and challenging. DOXA Journeys YOUTH FROM LOCAL CHURCHES Partnering with youth from our Doxa gatherings who want to be involved in a 6-8 month learning process in which they are challenged to serve locally and globally. YOUTH FROM THE DORSET PARK COMMUNITY Partnering with the Dorset Park community to lead and facilitate an overseas service project focusing on issues like poverty, justice and homelessness both at home and abroad. Our desire is to create awareness of world issues and for teens to discover how they can make a positive difference in the world. DOXA Community The teens involved in DOXA come from diverse-ethnic, social, economic and spiritual backgrounds. While some of these young people have stable and healthy support systems, many are at-risk and are often marginalized. Our hope is to provide coaching and mentorship to youth groups and youth from the Scarborough area. I am thrilled to be a part of a dynamic and growing ministry. We have a great team of staff and volunteers. All of our staff raise 100% of their support/salaries.

Thank you for your support, prayers and encouragement. Calvin Doxa Director
