Christians Embracing Diversity
As we journey towards our diversity mountain and learn how to build bridges in our community the Christians Embracing Diversity group would like to recommend some amazing resources as we grow in appreciation of the many cultures in our community.

Foster the City
Not everyone can bring a child into their home but many of us are looking for ways to help. If you’ve ever been interested in supporting those in the foster care system, this meeting is for you. Childcare available! Questions? Djs@c3milpitas.org
Compassion International
Compassion child sponsorship works! Millions of children have “graduated” from our program and are now responsible, fulfilled Christian adults. Allow God to work through you in the life of a child in poverty. Sponsor a child today! https://www.compassion.com/
Milpitas Cares
Ten years ago it started with a group of pastors asking a simple question: "Why can't we take better care of our community?" Indeed, why not? We all agree God deeply cares for our community and so do we. So we started Milpitas Cares and encouraged all the churches and people in our community to join with us...and you did! Milpitas Cares quickly became the largest community service event in and for Milpitas contributing tens of thousands of hours of volunteer help to scores of community services each year.
