Our story
A simple but burning conviction
Love on Hamilton started in 2014 through Daniel and Katie Ziedins with a simple conviction: every person matters to God, and the love of Jesus belongs in the streets.
What began as a heart to serve the lost and broken in Hamilton has grown into a multiplying vision through Love on The World. The mission isn't just street outreach — it is discipleship, training, multiplication, and city transformation.
Along the way we have watched God do what only He can: lives healed, chains of addiction broken, people set free, and many coming to faith in Christ. To God be all the glory.
