Journey Center Compassion, Mercy & Justice

Christ said, "I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." In response to those who didn’t understand and asked "When did we do these things for you?" He said, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of these, you did for me." (The book of Matthew, 25:34-40)

At the Journey Center, we believe that the love we experience and are nourished by is meant to be shared. Part of our vision is to invite others to join us in the community as we show compassion and work for justice wherever the Spirit leads us.

The Spring Quarter’s Human Trafficking Awareness Event will be an Abolitionist Tea and 'Just' Desserts Party....(fair trade desserts) for all.

Sunday, May 16, 2010, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
As you read these words, an estimated 27 million people are enslaved around the globe in varied capacities. The Abolitionist Tea Party will be an evening to gain deeper insight into two regions that provide the rest of the world with commodities tied to modern day slavery. On our journey we will be sampling fair trade tea and desserts from these particular regions, highlighting specific practical steps toward helping slaves in these situations attain freedom. More>

Human Trafficking Presentations

Christy Mark and Julie Miller are available to come to your group or to your workplace to give a 30-60 minute presentation to raise awareness on Human Trafficking. The presentation is interactive and concludes with things we can all do to end slavery. Please contact the Journey Center if you want to arrange something!

Come Sit a While

"Come Sit a While"- if you are drawn to reach out to the elderly in our community, please consider joining Rosemarie at a local convalescent home. She has discovered that at least 20 residents there NEVER get even one visitor. All you need is about 20-30 minutes a week. It requires no special talents, just a willingness to be present with a precious elder and "sit a while". For more information, please contact Rosemarie at The Journey Center 707-578-2121 and she will be glad to help you get started in being a blessing.
