What is Faith Mission about?
It’s ensuring Faith Mission is welcoming, deeply integrated in the neighborhood, and faithful in all its endeavors. We remember all people bear God’s image and we follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ using dignity, assets, presence, grace, hope, and love in all that we do.
It’s nurturing the spiritual well-being of people in the community. We include neighborhood residents, people serving and partnering with Faith Mission, and participating congregations.
It’s enhancing the overall well-being of children, youth, and adults in the neighborhood. We partner with others and we provide leadership to support our neighbors’ wholeness and self-sufficiency using education, life skills, and empowerment strategies.
