Welcome
from all of us at Aurora Shalom Ministries, Aurora, Illinois. |
|
We are a not-for-profit organization that serves a multiracial and vulnerable population in central Aurora, where gangs, shootings and prostitution are endemic. Last year over 250 children and adults were registered in our programs, and 150 adults and youth volunteered. We are one of the original Communities of Shalom, founded by the United Methodist Church following the Los Angeles race riots. We aim to bring Shalom, the peace and justice of God, to a community in desperate need of it. Please contact us if you would like a paper copy mailed to you. |
Our mission is to plan, develop, and initiate programs that will empower economically disadvantaged individuals in central Aurora. These activities shall be in the form of educational and nurturing opportunities and of housing and economic development. |
...and what does the Lord require of you, but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8
