Purpose
We are actively mobilizing 2000 churches to adopt 1-2000 homes surrounding them; so that there would be "no sheep without a shepherd, in our city of 10 million and "the Lamb for sinner's slain might receive the reward for His suffering."
Mission statement
To bring hope, transformation, and long-term opportunity to some of the most underserved communities in our city through faith-driven, practical outreach.
