Bayview Mission is a Special Mission of the Episcopal Diocese of California with strong support from Grace Cathedral. It provides much needed services, food, and supplies to residents of the Hunters Point/Bayview neighborhoods.

Bayview Mission Purpose
Jesus taught us to love and serve one another. Bayview Mission will live out this call of love and service by manifesting the blessings that God has bestowed upon us. In living out our baptismal vows to seek and serve Christ in all persons, love our neighbors as ourselves, strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being, we seek to establish a welcoming community and safe haven for all generations in the Bayview Community. In all of our thoughts, words, and deeds, we will be mindful of the ministry of love and service to which God has called us.
