See, Act, Love

Together we make our way forward—in faith, hope, and love.

In challenging times, we often think that what we’re experiencing is the worst and that the past was so much better. The truth is that every era has its issues. Even Jesus and his disciples knew political upheaval, social divides, religious attacks, and economic insecurities.

Amidst such tension, Jesus sought to calm troubled hearts in all he said and did. His constant refrain was: “Do not be afraid. Have faith in God; have faith in me.” It is this faith we hold onto for direction and a way forward in turbulent times. We remain grounded in the Word of God, regardless of what is going on around us.

The way forward means a commitment to seek truth, proclaim hope, and accompany those who suffer. In difficult times:

  • We show up every day as people of faith.
  • We see, act, and love, even when it contradicts the prevailing voices of our time.
  • We become peace-makers and peace-builders, not just peace-lovers.

You are part of our community and we need you with us.

Please make a gift today to support a just and faithful response to the pain of our world.
