A different approach to poverty alleviation
Poverty isn’t merely a lack of material goods that can be alleviated by providing food and shelter or even by helping folks secure jobs or permanent housing.
Poverty is a breakdown in the four fundamental relationships of life; our relationship with God, self, others and the rest of creation, something we all experience at some level.
We believe the answer to alleviating poverty for all of us is Jesus, who came to restore and renew our relationships with God, self, others and creation.
Through Jesus, we can flourish in the life God intends; a life of loving God and serving others, a life of understanding our purpose and a life of joyful work that provides for ourselves and others.
Our ministry is focused
on partnering with
supporters to promote
relationships and providing
services that can lead
to a flourishing life.
BBring good news to the poor ... proclaim that captives have been released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free, and that the time of the Lord’s favor has come. Luke 4:18-19
