About our work: We partner with local people in need of decent, affordable housing, through new construction, rehab, and other relevant work. We serve Clarksdale, MS in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, one of the major areas of “deep disadvantage” in the US. We emphasize both the community improvement and Kingdom-building aspects of our ministry. We encourage educational explorations into the dynamics of race, class. poverty, and spirituality. We seek to break down culturally imposed barriers between God’s people and we earnestly pray for transformational change through the Fuller experience.

 

Things to do/sightseeing: Sometime during the week (often Sunday), we offer a history tour of Coahoma County complete with a stop at the Mississippi River and relevant Habitat/Fuller sites. The Emmett Till Interpretive Center and the BB King Museum are within easy driving distance and are highly recommended. We also offer evening discussions with dynamic after-school programs/Fuller allies like Spring Initiative and Griot Arts
