The Baltimore International Seafarers' Center is an inter-faith ministry rooted in the tradition of Christian hospitality. We believe in the unconditional love of God for all people, and we demonstrate this love through our commitment to serving the personal and spiritual needs of seafarers in the Port of Baltimore.

We accomplish this purpose by:

Welcoming and training qualified volunteers and staff on an equal opportunity basis.

The Baltimore International Seafarers' Center is affiliated with the Mission to Seafarers.
