Outreach

We know that in order to be relevant, we must be reaching out and connecting with people around us in the community and the world. We are called to help God transform the world. Our call is rooted in the work Jesus did and in his message to all those who suffer and seek belonging. We perform this work by coordinating our own ministries and partnering with other local organizations. Our major missions and ministries are listed below. If the Spirit is prodding you to start a new effort, we would love to hear it! Please feel free to contact Rev. Lin or any of the leaders identified below.

1. ...is run by one church.
2. ...focuses on the youngest children.
3. ...forms exclusive one-to-one relationships

Each of the mentors are trained by the churches Kids Hope USA director. Each mentor has a behind the scenes prayer partner who actively prays for the child and the mentor.
