alternatives to the evils of racism, poverty and violence that tear down our communities and lives.

Core Values:
➢	We believe, as followers of Jesus, that all people are created in the image of God.
➢	We believe in respect for all peoples in all communities.

partnerships and education, reflecting diversity.
