Serving the Community
making disciples of christ by putting our faith in action
We can stand up for one another; we can feed each other; we can clothe each other; we can tell each other about the love of God that surrounds us, holds us and names us. We can be the light of Christ for each other, not just when we feel happy, or when we respond to crisis, but we are called each and every day to be God's children and care for the least of these.
