The Partners in Mission Designated Offering Program at Grace is one of the ways that we are Reaching Out in Christ's Love. Each month, we pass the plate for an organization that aligns with our Mission, and about whose mission our members and friends feel passionately. Our impact is doubled thanks to the Grace Foundation, who match every gift dollar for dollar, up to $2,000/month.
A National Emergency has been declared at the border––but the reality on the ground tells a far different story. While fear-driven narratives spread, communities in the U.S.-México borderlands continue the work of welcome––and the need for truth-telling has never been greater.
Now is the time to come, see, and witness for yourself. Your presence is vital in countering misinformation.

Without the right to a public defender, both adults and children in immigration detention appear in court alone without an attorney. They may be deported back to the unsafe situations they have fled. The Florence Project offers them a lifeline through free legal and social services and advocacy.
Social services include such things as mental health counseling, healthcare support, crisis planning, housing, pregnancy or parenting support, and education. Advocacy includes appeals to the Board of Immigration and various Courts, along with amicus (friend of the court) briefs. Generating and promoting news stories that highlight the plight of immigrants is another part of advocacy. In each of these areas, they collaborate with other national legal service providers and humanitarian organizations. In 2023, they served over 25,000 people from 83 countries, over 17,000 of whom were unaccompanied children.
