The Beginning

So this is the beginning. A new journey for Carmen Winiarski, Karen Erskine Valentine, Milly Rivera, and myself (Mary Gunderson).

It is such a gift to meet and be able to work with three amazing women! Women called by God to serve a community in need. Women called to step out of our own comfort zones. Women called to empower and bring love to a community hungry for hope and peace in their lives. Women called to challenge the broader community to step out in faith and courage and be the hands and feet of God who is among us.

Immanuel's House has no set home at this time...but those involved are already working on the streets with those without a permanent address, working in our local jail, working to bring community gardens closer to those in need of them, and working to meet the spiritual and physical needs of the Hispanic community.

There is so much we want to do in this ministry and we invite you to be a part of this new journey with us.

Blessings and peace,
Mary Gunderson
