"Sacred one, teach us love, compassion and honor, that we may heal the earth and heal each other."                                                     -- Native American prayer

     

As We hear the cry of God's people, we feel an urgency to respond to their needs with our all. And we feel energized by our bonding together as we share our faith, our tears, and our laughter with all people in need.

We minister to:

• Youth, elderly, and all ages in between

• All economic classes, including the rich and the poor

• Black, white, Hispanic, and Native American

• Sick, alcoholic and chemically dependent.

• Poorly educated, hungry, homeless, and battered

• People searching for meaning and faith

• The grief stricken and those faced with hard decisions
