GlobalFingerprints, the EFCA’s new child-sponsorship program for orphans of HIV/AIDS and other tragic circumstances is right at your fingertips. Through the GlobalFingerprints program, orphaned children will see their practical needs met in the name of Jesus. They will enjoy a love and caring they might have thought was gone forever. They will see that someone loves them uniquely. That love will be the fingerprint of Jesus on their lives. Click here for more information about GlobalFingerprints.

seasonal opportunities
boxes of love
God has mandated the church to minister to the needs of the poor. Here’s Life Inner City works with churches that see the importance of meeting both spiritual and physical needs (holistic) in their communities. Every year as the Thanksgiving season approaches, Here’s Life Inner City provides thousands of complete dinners for needy families through the Boxes of Love campaign. We need volunteers to purchase boxes and/or assemble boxes of love. Click here to learn more about Here’s Life Inner City.
easter bags
Each Easter season, Here's Life Inner City assembles over 1,000 Easter bags to be distributed to needy children through the ongoing ministries of urban churches. God uses this compassionate project to draw children and their families into new relationships with Him. We need volunteers to help put together bags.

short term trips
Hurricane Katrina Relief work in New Orleans continues to be an ongoing ministry
of EFCA TouchGlobal Crisis Response. In the aftermath of hurricane
Katrina, Crisis Response partnered with Trinity Church, Castle Rock
Community Church and Urban Impact Ministries to restore church bodies
and mobilize people from around the country to transform the
communities of southern Louisiana.
What began as an idea, with a few people and no resources, has grown
into an ongoing ministry partnership of outreach, compassion and
church planting through Trinity Church, Castle Rock Community Church,
Urban Impact Ministries, the EFCA denomination, and beyond.
The week of October 17-23 2010 a team from Constance will be going to
New Orleans to help with Katrina relief.
