One of the core values of Graceland People is Compassionate Living. Jesus radically taught that our neighbor is anyone in need.  Jesus calls his church to be a compelling force for good in the world, and we believe that the church is at its best when it serves, sacrifices, and loves, caring about the things God cares about.

In an effort to be agents for change our group had the opportunity to serve people in need this weekend.  We spent our Saturday building a home with Habitat for Humanity.  If you’re not familiar with Habitat for Humanity it is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry. It seeks to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world, and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action.

We can’t agree more with the purpose and we had a great time serving.  Here is the group together.
