As a church, we want to be faithful to the calling of Micah 6:8, which tells us to love mercy, to do justice and to walk humbly with God. We want to provide you opportunities to express your faith and join in the redemptive work of God around the world. The Compassion/Justice page provides some resources for you to connect with people and organizations that are doing great work.
