Local Service
Loving and serving in our neighborhoods and our city as a church has been part of the DNA of All Souls since we started. It has always been our desire to be a place and people known for how it cares for the community around it. We find that it is most effective for our people to connect with organizations that are doing the work day in and day out. So, check out some of the organizations we particularly like and check back here to keep track of events we've got going.
Who We Like
Street GRACE is an alliance of churches, community partners, and volunteers dedicated to supporting, enlarging, and allying with those individuals and organizations working toward eliminating the commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC). Street GRACE mobilizes the resources within the community (financial, human and material) toward those organizations and individuals who have demonstrated effectiveness in battling CSEC in the areas of advocacy, aftercare and mentoring. Our ultimate goal is the elimination of this problem in the city of Atlanta and duplication of these efforts in other cities across the United States. www.streetgrace.org/
