Welcome to the Race Track Chaplaincy of Canada website
The excitement and glamour of thoroughbred racing is what most people see when they spend a day at the races. But behind the scene are countless men and women working hard to make that day happen.
For these workers the days are long and the work hard, and often dangerous....but for most it is a labour of love.
For a lot of people the race track is not just their place of employment. It is their home, and the center of their social circle. The backstretch is truly a community.
The RTCC strives to address the many needs of this community, both spiritually and practically. Racetrack Chaplains provide support, aid, guidance and sometimes just a friendly ear to listen to problems. Through things like the RTCC's educational programs and holiday celebrations this sense of community can grow and flourish.
The Race Track Chaplaincy of Canada strives to live out Matthew 25 year-round through it's ministry and it's members:
Feed, Visit, Clothe, Council, Care
'I can guarantee this truth: Whatever you did for one of my brothers or sisters, no matter how unimportant, you did for me.'
