FOR THE CITY
+ BEYOND

This work categorically includes water, education, and community projects with the following goals:

• Provide clean water that saves lives and earns a hearing for the Gospel within communities that suffer a lack of potable water.
• Alleviate poverty by addressing its root causes, namely displaced communities and under-served schools
• Increase access to education, especially for children

For the City is a rallying cry that calls Jesus’ church to engage in meaningful service to its neighbors. The end result? We let our light shine before others in obedience to Jesus’ teaching:

In partnership with Barnes and William Walker Elementary Schools, we host an after school program twice a week for 60 kids. It is our heart and vision to provide a safe space for students where they can participate in enrichment activities, grow in friendships, be encouraged in their education, and know that they are cared for.
