Our Vision

When we create possibilities with purpose, we create a unique way for churches and caring volunteers to meet an immediate need right in their own community. We listen to local leaders and pastors. We take the time to understand their culture, context, and concerns. Together, we create opportunities to serve with purpose.

PEOPLE.

Helping people find lives filled with Purpose.

PASSION.

Reflecting God’s compassion on the world around us.

ACTION.

Nurturing Christian compassion into action.

Partners with Purpose

Christ Church Crossroads Pastors Aaron and Alex met with us over coffee, we brainstormed about possibilities for kids of any age to get involved. The church was hosting a lock-in for parents and kids. We asked, “Like camping? A pillow under one arm and a flashlight in the other?” How about a Pillow and a Prayer? See what happens when kids have a chance to show and share compassion. See more on Pillow And A Prayer.
