HAVE YOU EVER...

  • felt compassion for the less fortunate?

  • felt called to speak out against social injustices?

  • felt moved to go the extra mile but didn't know where to start?

  • wanted to serve Christ present in those who suffer?

VIDES might be a way for you to do something about it!
