Review for The Jonah Project, El Segundo, CA, USA
The Jonah Project is a place of peace in a world of chaotic darkness. A place of shalom. When one walks into the Jonah project, there is an incredible sense of God's love being poured out by the volunteers there. It's almost like walking into a library, it's quiet, warm, and very inviting. Their mission is to be a place where God's love is made tangible to the people who come in contact with the Jonah Project. The staff at the Jonah Project seek to make everyone comfortable and to share the love of Christ by just listening and praying over people. When I helped at the Jonah Project I went out with a group of volunteers and we walked the streets of Skid Row praying over people and just listening to people. I would definitely recommend the Jonah Project as a place to go and just love people. Don't expect it to be a place where you are made the center by preaching the gospel to everyone you come in contact with, but that's not the true gospel. The gospel is to love these people and build relationships with them. The Jonah Project made that clear, their purpose is to build relationships with the people of Skid Row and through that bring the gospel into these people's lives.
