Our Partners
UrbanMission and its Community Wellness Initiatives are made possible by the radical cooperation we share with these organizations, understanding that Shared Spiritual Values are the foundation of partnership.
"Therefore, if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort in love, any sharing in the Spirit, any sympathy, complete my joy by thinking the same way, having the same love, being united, and agreeing with each other. Don’t do anything for selfish purposes, but with humility think of others as better than yourselves. Instead of each person watching out for their own good, watch out for what is better for others. Philippians 2:1-4 CEB

The Open Table Gathering - A Weekly Sabbath Community Dinner
Each Sunday we dine at a common table, all of us in need of the nourishment that Sabbath fellowship provides.
"So you see that a sabbath rest is left open for God’s people. The one who entered God’s rest also rested from his works, just as God rested from his own."
Hebrews 4:9-10 CEB
