Among our local and global community:

• For the village on 6th and Orchard and for those who find themselves without shelter.

• Finally, join us in lifting up our Global Ministries partners this week, in Mexico, more specifically, Las Memorias Hostel, a non-profit civil association based in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. Founded in 1999, its mission is to provide compassionate, quality care for adults and minors living with HIV/AIDS and addictions, while also supporting their families and raising awareness through educational programs. Committed to dignity and inclusion, the hostel welcomes individuals regardless of their background, offering free services such as housing, food, medicine, transportation to medical facilities, and self-help sessions. Las Memorias operates without imposing political or religious agendas and is sustained by donations and a mutual aid agreement with the State Government. With a vision to grow and strengthen its outreach, the organization continues to be a vital source of hope, healing, and human solidarity.
