Overview
Mission

Through established relationships with our community, we are aware of what they need and can effectively support them by bringing service groups in.Our prayer is that more people would gain a vision for leading a life of servanthood so that they can make a difference in their cities, schools and homes. Orlando is a sought after area for visitors, the underserved people in our city need help and our local service organizations should always have the volunteers and man power they need to serve our neighbors well.
