About Us
Comunidad de Luz will offer accommodations for up to 100 women and children, providing them with essential support services, including child care, job training, psychological care, and housing. This initiative is a groundbreaking effort to aid those struggling to create a new life after migrating to the border, offering them hope and a fresh start.
Our faith compels us to welcome the stranger and care for those who are vulnerable. The Bible teaches us in Matthew 25:35, "For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty, and you gave me drink, I was a stranger, and you welcomed me." This call to action is not merely a suggestion but a commandment to embody the love of Christ in our actions. By providing shelter and support to migrants, we are living out this biblical mandate, ensuring that our faith is not only heard but seen and felt by those in need.
Comunidad de Luz is more than just a safe place; it is a testament to what we can achieve when we work together in the spirit of love and service.
We are putting our faith into action, standing with those who are most vulnerable, and offering them the support and dignity they deserve. We have an opportunity to help, and we’re acting on it."
