Finding holistic solutions to global issues requires us to embrace creativity which is why we are committed to exploring innovative approaches to welcoming the Kingdom of God.

What this means: not everything works the first time. We wish we could say we have success every time, but we believe we are called to make bold choices in the face of injustice. Sometimes our plans work and sometimes we start again with a better grasp from the experience.

Long-term solutions must begin and end with intentional sustainability as a primary goal which is both a means and an end to all we do so the good news of Christ will continue to be shared for generations to come.

What this means: we are not looking for on-going projects. We do all we can to think through sustainability from the outset of any project we engage in but we also understand every context is unique and different approaches are necessary depending on the country or region.

We believe cultivating healthy partnerships cross-culturally means educating all those involved, giver and recipient, on how to approach equitable accountability that will support interdependent partnership.

What this means: we will understand the context before we place expectations on specifics of accountability. We are serious about monitoring, evaluating, and reflecting on every project we engage in, but we will do this in ways which are as culturally appropriate as possible for all parties involved.
