Faith Relations

United Methodist Church Survey

"At Habitat for Humanity of Greater LA partnership with the faith community is one of our most important priorities. As people of faith put their beliefs into action, homes are built and families are changed. We could not successfully complete the work that we do without the power and financial support of our faith partners. Together we can create a sustainable impact in the Los Angeles area."
- Erin Rank, President & CEO HFH GLA

Our love should not be just words and talk; it must be true love, which shows itself in action.
- 1 John 3:18 NASB
