Messiah Baptist Church of Grand Rapids has a history of partnering with the impoverished. To strengthen our position as viable community advocates, we've developed M VILLAGE. Our goal is to bridge the access gap to resources for individuals experiencing multiple disparities. We envision using our influence to create stable housing opportunities, beginning with displaced residents in South East Grand Rapids.
We've already begun our work, which has proven beneficial. Using the tenets of our current model – Integrity, Respect, Love, Collaboration, Advocacy, and Stewardship – we look forward to expansion!
