Project Description:
“The Cause” "The Cause" is a monthly gathering designed to shift focus away from personal comfort and toward the alleviation of suffering. These gatherings center on "The Cause" (God) and specific justice-centric themes—such as homelessness, gun violence, climate change, and discrimination. By coming together to pray, worship, learn, and share resources, the community aims to move the needle on the most significant challenges facing the region.
