serving the city
All for the sake of the city.
The end goal of our City Ministries are not completed service projects but life fostered in the community for the sake of the city. Our community exists to see relationships, redemption, and restoration on the streets of our city.
Our community’s main gathered City Ministry, the way in which we invest in mission together, is currently by committing to being an active presence at Los Angeles City College.
We recognize that many of us are investing in our neighbors and neighborhoods in various personal ways, and we support these efforts. We consider those our community’s scattered City Ministries, little pockets of mission sprinkled throughout the city.
Current City Ministries

LACC Tutoring
On Saturdays, we volunteer at Los Angeles City College’s GED and HiSET (High School Equivalency Test) classes to help tutor students in Reading, Writing & Math. We also consistently pray for these students, provide baked goods during their study sessions, and support their GED testing.

Manna Room
The Manna Room began when a Kairos member who worked at Trader Joe’s asked if Hope IBF could use a couple of bags of bread that were thrown away every week. It’s now grown from a couple of bags to millions of pounds of almost-expiring food a year. We help sort the multitude of those donations daily in the mornings.
