About this Event

Why this Matters? We are living in difficult times. Members of our community -- migrants, homeless neighbors, at-risk youth, and under-served families - face struggles they should not face alone. As the Body of Christ, we are called to minister and serve. This Easter season, join us as one Body answering one call.

This event includes two sessions. In each session, you can choose from three workshops: Migrant Crisis, Housing Crisis, or Youth Crisis. Please select one workshop for each session after purchasing your ticket.
