Church Missions Aren’t Just An Event, It’s A Person

Graffiti Ministries continues to be “A Church That Serves.” For us, that begins with sharing Christ’s love in tangible ways (i.e. a sandwich, a suit of clothing, a tutoring session), but serving doesn’t stop there. We pray for big changes, not simply big numbers. Changing one block can change a neighborhood, changing a neighborhood can change a city, changing a city can change a country, changing a country can impact the whole world. We now serve in a number of neighborhoods through our church missions, with more in process. As these sites and affiliates grow and coordinate, we hope to see the culture in these areas change.
Our vision is to see God’s work grow from the ground up. Our first goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of people in the Lower East Side. As God’s people serve within our church missions to local community of need, those who are helped are then empowered to also serve and grow closer to God themselves. The “chain reaction” is inevitable!
Graffiti Ministries is located on the lower east of New York City.
