Missions.
When you hear that word, it's natural to think of exotic locations and faraway lands. To see hungry African children who may have never heard the name Jesus. To imagine the smell of garbage on the streets in India.
But the mission field starts here in America.
Elizabeth and Frank Varaso serve in Kensington — one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Philadelphia. Mission teams helped convert the empty lot beside their home into a safe place for neighbors to gather, build relationships, and grow in their faith.
But beyond the Varasos' walls, the community needs help and hope.
