Our Model & Partners

Why Relational Discipleship?

1. Because Jesus Christ has done it for us. God himself came to us as a person. He has pursued a relationship with us.

2. Because God sees and cares for the whole person. Each person is created in the image of God; designed for relationship with Him and with His family. Yet, we see that the relational and spiritual needs of the homeless community are often overlooked. 

3. Because the Church is called to this. The Church is called to make disciples. To go to those who are hidden, hurting, and hopeless, and help them find and follow Jesus Christ. 

We work alongside multiple other…

ministries, agencies, and service providers to help connect our homeless friends to the best resources available. 

We strive to be one support in our homeless friends’ lives and connect them to additional community resources that specialize in meeting various needs such as housing, addiction treatment, and mental health help. 

We recognize the multi-faceted complexity of homelessness and believe that our part is to build friendships that show and share Christ’s love. Our prayer is that each of our homeless friends would personally experience, discover, and live in Christ’s love for them!
