The Family drinkin coffee and hangin out on a saturday mornin
These are some photographs taken by Tisha Lynne Galvan a few Saturday mornings ago. Featured in these photographs are some of our beloved "extended family members" in the Forrest Park in Old Town Victorville.
Parea Community is just a bunch of friends who find our place among the poor, the needy and the broken... We exist in the abandoned places of our society to offer love, our hands and the scandalous grace of Jesus Christ to the poor. Currently we are involved in the Old Town neighborhood of Victorville, Ca and Portland, OR. We feel moved by the example of Jesus and countless numbers of disciples, apostles, monks, brothers, sisters, saints and sinners to sacrifice the passions and seductions of the world, to build the Kingdom of God. We have seen the oppression and disdain for the poor in our city. We have witnessed the power of hopelessness and abandonment among our homeless friends. Yet, we have also heard of the power of grace... and though the still small voice of our King, which proclaims grace and peace to all the world is hidden behind the screams of chaos, violence and confusion, this small, simple community is seeking that voice with reckless abandon! Come, dream with us for awhile! Maybe you too will be able to hear that voice calling...
