Key Quotes
- Alexxa Gagner on Core Values: “Engage mercifully, work holistically, speak truthfully, and believe in miracles… these are like our core values as an organization, how we live out our faith. God does miracles. He can heal people and be a part of our day-to-day.”
- On Compassion: “Viewing people just through a lens of love and through non-judgment… there’s a person, there’s a story, there’s a background, just like we all have.”
- On Impactful Interactions: “Even if they only come to us once for a meal and they feel that love… we feel like we’ve done our job.”
- On Approaching Homelessness: “Treat people with dignity… You can see Christ in them. Offer a smile, ask their name, or how you can pray for them.”
- Alina on Societal Roles: “In America, we think the highest role in our society is the president. But actually, that’s not true. It’s the citizen.”
