By going into the heart of Syracuse, we allow ourselves to be transformed by our conversations, actions, and experiences. We hope that by bringing the youth of this community together on this service trip that they can share in a perspective of unity and grow deeper in their faith.

OUR MISSION
OUR MISSION
We affirm that God loves and cares for the people living in the inner-city of Syracuse and that they are a gift to all who are seeking relationships of hope, healing, and renewal. We want to change the world we live in for good by allowing God to change us, one youth, one person, one heart, one relationship at a time. We pray to be instruments of God’s peace and work to train one another in the biblical model of servant leadership.
