Jeremiah
With other area churches throughout New Orleans and the north
shore area, we seek to live Jeremiah 29:7 which calls us to "seek
the welfare of the city...pray on its behalf to the Lord, for in its
welfare will you find your welfare." By establishing relationships
and identifying common ground, we strive to ensure community
involvement in decision-making processes that seek institutional
change in the following areas: Neighborhood Revitalization,
Education, Living Wage Jobs, Community Policing, and Drug
Abuse
Treatment and Prevention. "Members of our Church
have made real differences in helping the unemployed find
living-wage jobs, confronting and restoring environmental
problems, and organizing a detox center for drug addicts."
Depending on your area of interest, the different committees
meet on various weeknights.
