service-learning education
The best way to learn is to teach, and the best way to serve is to take a 'posture of humble learning'. As the fundamental component of all of our endeavors, we seek to learn collectively through a process of study, action, and reflection, where all progress intellectually and spiritually in their capacity to serve.
building neighborhood resilience
To be resilient does not mean to sit idly, take abuse, witness inequities, or accept life circumstances as is and 'hope' that it will pass someday! Resilience is an active force of empowerment in which we develop the capacity to sense and respond to meet the needs of our community.

REFLECTION FOR BUILDERS OF UNITY
PICK A STAR FLOWER…ANY STAR…Everybody is a star!..NOW STOP FOCUSING on your own star ‘power’ and look around. You will see that you are actually part of another’s star 'power’ and that your star power is actually made up of alot of other peoples 'star power’, and in reality the FLOWER OF LIFE IS THE REAL STAR!!
The light is always identical in its composition, but it falls on a great variety of objects, and by so falling is first revealed to us, not in its own form, for it is formless, but in theirs; in like manner, thought only appears in the objects it classifies.
Everybody can be great because anybody can serve…You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love. And you can be that servant.
