Agency of Hope

For over one hundred years the Auckland City Mission has been a flagbearer of the city's compassion towards and support for the poor, the marginalised and the homeless. Its own story, marked at times by struggle, is colourful and peopled by memorable characters. This lively history by well-known historian Peter Lineham takes you inside a remarkable organisation working at the front lines of a society in which poverty has become entrenched.

De peste o suta de ani, misiunea orasului Auckland a fost un purtator de steag al compasiunii orasului fata de si a sprijinului pentru saraci, marginalizati si fara adapost. Propria sa poveste, marcata uneori de lupta, este colorata si populata de personaje memorabile.
