We recognize that this work is more complex than a simple visit to a neighborhood in need. These issues are not solved with an arrangement of spiritual platitudes or short term economic relief.
We see it as our responsibility to educate everyone that we invite into this community, for the good of both the resident and the visitor. Through the outpouring of the love of Christ and all of its manifestations, we hope for mutual transformation. Please take a look at some of the resources listed below. We believe that this list is a good place to start. However, the best way to learn about this community is by building relationships.
If you have questions or concerns for any resource listed, please feel free to reach out to us. We would love to talk to you about them!
