Be The Neighbor

Return to Directory

Ft. Worth, TX—Be The Neighbor is a justice-based service-learning trip ministry empowering youth and adults to put faith into action through service and justice in ways that are relational, sustainable, and dignity-affirming. Trips include direct service, relational ministry, immersion experiences, and education. Participants learn from community leaders and organizers, public policymakers, advocates, and neighbors affected by the injustices they are seeking to address. They also learn how to be the neighbor, not only through service, but also by learning about root causes and systemic issues, so that they can return to their own communities to serve and work for justice.
