Interesting quote

Effective passion is not about spikes in blood pressure and raised voices.
Its about being concerned enough to sustain your efforts to be a relevant actor.

We are grateful for the agencies that serve us

Here in Chicago, we are able to work with many agencies that host our volunteers. We are grateful to them for working with us and showing us how to serve and be served.

The summer has started

We are pleased to welcome our first 60 participants this week from Nebraska and Kansas. We thank God for a good staff bonding time and we ask for prayers as we work to "see the face of God in the City" this week and beyond.
