Faith and Action
https://www.faithandactiononline.org/Faith and Action was organized in 2009 to provide a venue for people to serve, share their faith, and bless those in need. Our ministries vision is not only to meet people’s physical needs but also to meet their spiritual needs by sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our volunteers are ordinary people that come together with a shared purpose of demonstrating God’s love in practical ways. “I will show you my faith by what I do.” James 2:18b In an effort to provide at-risk kids with an alternative to gang activities, Faith and Action provides opportunities for kids to interact with people who care about them. Just as important is that our outreach provides an opportunity for our volunteers to serve, bless, and show love to some of the most underserved children in Chicago. Many of our events are non-threatening and consist of simply spending some time with often neglected children. Often our time is our witness.
