Faithworks has contributed over $1.8 million dollars in materials, medicine, labor and services. We are able to accomplish this through the commitment of our membership and a clear understanding of our goals and values.
- To create partnerships among Christian ministries and individuals which give volunteers hands-on involvement in ministry, increase partners' understanding of one another, and educate partners about other areas of the nation and world.
- To improve or expand the physical facilities needed for a Christian ministry to accomplish its mission, or to help Christian ministries in construction projects related to their mission.
- To provide medical services in under served areas.
- To provide opportunities to teach children about the saving love of Jesus Christ.
