Vancouver Port's Mission to Seafarers — also called the Flying Angels Club

For more than a century, the Mission to Seafarers has been a source of comfort to international sailors visiting Vancouver’s port. Today, with ships docking for shorter times and crews facing unprecedented challenges, the ministry’s role is more essential than ever.

The approximately 120-year-old house is one of the oldest buildings at Canada’s biggest port.
