Purpose

We support the worthy goals of the United Nations to address the critical needs of the world. We agree with Dr. Charles Malik, 13th President of the General Assembly, that personal and global peace, security, social justice, respect for human dignity and a high regard for women are affirmed in the teachings of Jesus and are anchored in a reverence for God. We facilitate opportunities for diplomats and their families to consider the relevance of God in personal and practical ways.

Funding

We receive no funding from any government agency or any single religious group. As a non-profit organization, we are funded by private citizens and many different churches who believe with us that the solution to current world issues is found through the transformation of peoples’ hearts as they find peace with God.
