We desire to meet the physical, spiritual, and educational needs of youth and their families. We partner closely with ministries that have existing programs serving our communities, both in Walnut Creek and in the wider Bay Area. When we serve, it becomes part of the fabric of our lives with deep relationships. Our lives change as our hearts break for what breaks God’s heart. We can each make a difference, offering our own time and talents in ways we are called to.
Global missions and ministries that ministries we support bring not just the gospel but the healing love of Jesus to communities in need of hope and reconciliation—or, in more modern terms, ministries that work to promote social justice in an effort to engender the global Christian community Jesus describes in Matthew 5–7.
