Vision: To witness Christlike love spread across cultural, economic, and religious boundaries in Atlanta.
Values: The following characteristics, founded on the life and teaching of Jesus Christ, define the work of Refugee Arts:
- Relational: Refugee Arts is defined by its love for God and its love for other people. Because of this, we give priority to building and sustaining personal relationships.
- Peaceful: Refugee Arts strives to foster peace in communities divided by bitterness, ignorance, and pride. We will encourage communication between parties and help to heal interpersonal wounds.
- Humble: Refugee Arts refuses to condescend to the people it works with. We will show the same Christlike love to the needy that we show to the privileged. We will likewise gladly accept the love that others show to us.
- Hospitable: Refugee Arts sees the home as the primary ministry center. We will invite guests into our homes, and we will visit those who open their homes to us.
- Holistic: Our passion to spread the gospel includes practical, consistent incarnation of the love of Jesus, who fed the hungry, healed the sick, played with kids, and addressed the suffering of those around him.
- Creative: Refugee Arts is a ministry in service to a creator God. Our work, words, and relationships will all be avenues for us to practice creativity, to reveal His character.
