- A Fellowship of Love

Missions

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
 

Acts 1:8

----------------------------

How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in?  And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?  And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent?  As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
 

Romans 10:14-15

----------------------------

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.  And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
 

Matthew 28: 19-20

---------------------------

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!  All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them.  And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
 

2 Corinthians 5:17-19

----------------------

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.  With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.  Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel.
 

Ephesians 6:18-19

Richmond

Elijah House Academy

The mission of Elijah House Academy is to assist parents in providing a quality Christian education in a protected environment for the children of our city.

While a recovery program is a good idea and needed in society, New Life For Youth provides so much more: a complete restoration program.  Restoring lives through the teachings of Jesus is what New Life For Youth has done for 3 decades.
Barefoot Living Ministries uses dance to point people to God. That Dance Thing (a teen program) and Freedom...Inside and Out (a ministry in the Richmond City Jail) use the teaching tool of dance to offer insights into community, discipline and joy of following God. In Footsteps classes, married couples discover the wonder of leading, following and cleaving to each other in a way that ultimately depicts our relationship with God. And His Handmaids trains young women to be witnesses of the gospel, allowing audiences to see, through liturgical dance, visual presentations of the gospel.
Providing health care, promoting wellness, and connecting community talents and resources with people in need in the name of Jesus Christ.

Church Hill Activities and Tutoring

Dedicated to creating and sustaining communities to transform the lives of at-risk youth in Church Hill. 

Strategies To Elevate People

STEP has worked to interrupt poverty cycles by providing practical solutions to break down the barriers to gainful employment and meaningful education. What makes STEP unique is their mandate to satisfy needs entirely through the gifts, resources and testimony of the people of God.

The Presbytery of the James strives to bring the rich history, tradition, faith and hope of the Presbyterian Church (USA) to Central Virginians through its congregations and ministries.
