About Us

Why We Do What We Do

We believe that everyone deserves to have enough—whether it’s a healthy meal each day, a safe place to rest their head at night, or simply the reassurance of knowing they are loved.

Our Mission

Answering God's Call

"We envision a world where everyone has enough."

What We Believe:

  • A little blue dove named Gracie.

    Imagine a World Where Everyone Has Enough

    The word “enough” means to us can sometimes be as simple as having food for one meal to sustain someone for a day. It can mean providing a safe place to rest their head at night. To us, "enough" means meeting these basic needs with compassion and dignity.

  • A little blue dove named Gracie.

    We See Jesus in Every Person We Serve

    We know that every individual is made in God’s image and deserves love, dignity, and respect. Our mission is not only about meeting physical, material needs; it's about recognizing the  inherent worth of every child of God. When we serve others, we are serving Christ himself.

  • A little blue dove named Gracie.

    We Go Wherever God Calls Us

    When we feel the leading of the Spirit, we follow Him with faith and obedience. Our mission is to reach out into the world wherever there is need, carrying with us the message of Christ’s love. As we provide aid, we are letting people know that they are loved, valued, and not forgotten.

    You Can Change Someone's Life Forever

    If you join the GRACE ministry, your service will directly impact the life of someone in need. Exultation is seeing the smile of someone you helped find shelter or witnessing hope rekindled in the heart of a weary child. Your involvement will leave a lifelong impression on those you serve.
