Matthew 25 Initiative
Justice. Mercy. For the Least of These.
The Matthew 25 Initiative exists to help Diocese of Christ Our Hope churches care for the least of these in their communities through equipping, engagement, and encouragement.
What is M25?
We want to see every local congregation create vital and sustainable outreach ministries so that every city knows that Anglicans are committed to care for and love the least of these.
Connection
We seek to support and connect Anglicans and their congregations who want to create , or are already involved directly, in issues of homelessness, immigration, refugee care/resettlement, human trafficking, creation care, food justice, at-risk youth, substance abuse/addiction, community development, prison ministry and restorative justice, the physically vulnerable, at risk children-youth-families, and racial reconciliation, to name a few.
Financial Support
The Provincial arm of Matthew 25 offers grant funding for projects that help disciples and directly impact those in need.
Almighty God, you created us in your own image: Grant us grace to contend fearlessly against evil and to make no peace with oppression; and help us to use our freedom rightly in the establishment of justice in our communities and among the nations, to the glory of your holy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen - p.659, Book of Common Prayer 2019.
