Here are some photos of our work in east Austin. Many of them show the partners we work with every day . . . neighborhood leaders, long-time residents, new immigrants, school and church leaders, health workers and so many others.
We truly believe that most of what is needed to build thriving communities is already present in east Austin, if those things can be nurtured, connected and encouraged. These photos show people with vision, people who are praying that their neighborhoods can become all that God intends them to be!
