When it comes to demonstrating care and concern for our homeless brothers and sisters, ministries of charity and of justice are equally important to us.  Each Tuesday noon, volunteers distribute over 120 sack lunches to homeless adults who call the streets of Hollywood home.  On other days our church staff refers homeless adults and families to shelters and to neighboring congregations who offer a similar hunger ministry.

While this important ministry of outreach, which began in 2002, is extremely important - we also recognize that there is much work to be done to eliminate the causes of homelessness and create much needed affordable housing in Hollywood.  To that end, we have been a leader in shaping the vision of an interfaith task force on homelessness in Hollywood.  Partnering with LA VOICE (a PICO organization), we have helped to mobilize sister congregations and build public support for the creation of supportive services and permanent supportive housing in our community.   Strategy and organizing meetings are held regularly here at the church.
