Expanding Community Circles of Hope We help churches fulfill the dream God has for them as they bear fruit as faithful disciples of Jesus Christ, reaching out to the least, the last and the lost in risk-taking service and radical hospitality. Our goal is that every congregation becomes involved in life-changing, risk-taking service for the transformation of the world, starting with our own local communities.
