son Franklin and others. Site includes news, information, and inspiration.
Ministries of Outreach

a hand, not a hand-out. A holistic vision of evangelism and social action
that stresses relocation, reconciliation, and redistribution propels CCDA

the poor and building up leadership at the grass-roots level. The site
contains a bookstore with key books by Wayne Gordon, John Perkins, and
others.

which is dedicated to building simple, decent, affordable, houses in partnership
with those in need of adequate shelter.

working for the well being of all people, especially children. Through
emergency relief, education, health care, economic development, and promotion

objection to war, and the development of nonviolent institutions, skills
and training for intervention in conflict situations.
