Spreading Joy In Our City

Philadelphia has a rich history of mural arts that reminds me of Jesus’s call in Matthew 5:14 to be “a city on a hill.” These bright splashes of color in an otherwise gritty city send a special message of purpose, intention, and renewal. Like the transformation of a blank or graffitied wall into a massive and colorful work of art, we too were once stained but are now transformed and have new life in Christ. Jesus now calls us to be that vibrant mural -- spreading joy and light to the darkened world around us.

We have important work to do in our city, and we can only continue this through a shared journey with mission partners like you. You make it possible through your giving to help us grow in truth and spread joy to our students and neighborhood. This June, we ask for your support in helping us continue our work of spreading joy, and fostering hope and a future in North Philadelphia!

We're excited share that our generous donor has once again offered a matching gift challenge for our Joy in June Campaign! Every dollar donated this month will be matched 1:1 up to $75,000.

Joy in June 2026
