Mission at Grace

Located three blocks north of the Rio Grande border with Mexico, Project Vida builds affordable low-income rental housing, provides high quality, low cost healthcare, creates homelessness prevention and recovery programs, develops and provides early-childhood education program, offers dynamic after-school enrichment, and provides microenterprise technical assistance and support.

Partnering with Abara, this foundation of our Presbytery works to ensure the honest narratives surrounding immigration, migration, and refugees are heard, those who want to learn more have the opportunity to do so, and encourage all to walk with those who are already hard at work along our border with Mexico.

The El Paso del Norte Sara McKnight Transitional Living Center provides a bridge to successful independence for women who are experiencing homelessness or are at risk of homelessness, especially for survivors of domestic, sexual, or other forms of violence. There they can find case management, counseling, financial empowerment services, job search assistance, and educational opportunities, while building self-esteem, self-respect, and respect for others.

In collaboration with our Lutheran siblings, we partner with our ELCA friends down the road for larger distribution efforts. 

Each year, our church partners with local prisons to support the families of local prisoners with encouragement and love. Our partnership serves to strengthen the relationships between those parents who are in prison and their children and to support their families as a whole with hope.
