Community Partners

Journey Church teams up with local organizations in outreach and relief efforts.  It is one way that we attempt to honor Jesus' words in the book of Matthew:


For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.
