Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is to meet the immediate needs of the people around us, and then connect them to organizations that can help set them up for long term growth and stability. Too often, people who have immediate needs get caught up in the red tape of larger non-profit organizations, even ones with the best of intentions. But a family doesn’t have two weeks to wait for food and shelter while they are vetted by a 501c3. They need help today. Jesus doesn’t command us to put people through levels of bureaucracy before they receive help. He simply tells us to help. We aim to make “help” simple again.
When Jesus preached to the 5,000 and they grew hungry, His answer was simple. Meet the immediate need. Give them food. Right then. And then continue to teach and nurture the other aspects of their lives. We aim to meet the immediate physical needs of individuals, and then set them up for continued growth in the other areas of life by partnering with local organizations that are set up to help individuals find their footing and thrive, whether in mental health, job training, housing or anything else that a person needs to live to their fullest potential as ordained by God.

Our Goals
Relieving Human Suffering
We aim to bridge the gap for critical needs while individuals wait for steady help from larger organizations.
Quality Education
We help connect people to resources to better their education and employment, so they can live a more stable life.
Zero Hunger
Hunger is one of the most critical needs that humans face. We don’t have time to wait when it comes to empty bowls.
Good Health
We help people get their medication fast, and we connect people to delivery services when transportation is an issue.
Help Globally
While we love our immediate community, we understand that there are needs across the globe. We aim to step into areas of need where God leads us.
Housing
Every human deserves shelter. We have resources across the community to help fill the gap for housing needs.

James 1:22-25
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
