Moving at the Pace of People with Kim Contreras
Today Andrew and Grace get to dive into the conversation with Kim Contreras, a long-time presence in the urban missions world here in Fresno, CA. In this episode they discuss working and living missionally in concentrated poverty, what it takes to do it long term, and how to do it without causing harm.
During Kim's years in Fresno, it has been a deep honor to learn about the city and be changed by that experience through the Lord and her neighbors and friends in the Lowell and Hidalgo community. As Trauma Healing Specialist, Kim focuses on equipping the church and community to understand trauma and experience their own healing journey, along with an invitation to participate in outreach to survivors of human trafficking. Two of the accessible tools she utilizes are the Clear-Thinking Solutions method and Trauma Healing Institute healing groups. She can be found with her husband Manuel and their two children, Ian (18) and Sophia (13) sharing an Anaconda burrito from Yareli’s, enjoying good coffee on the steps with their dog Shadow and playing with their cats, Fuego, Sombra, and Rosa.

You Can't Build on Broken with Joe White
What would it look like to view the people and places around as gifts, not negatives? In this episode, Andrew and Grace sit down with Joe White, pastor of Neighborhood Church in the historic Jackson Neighborhood of Fresno, CA. Joe is a long time advocate of being a church with the neighborhood, not a church to or for it. Joe reminds us that Jesus is the absolute best news we can give, and that He himself cares about people and places and the thriving of them both.

Joe refers to the book, Transforming Power, by Robert Linthicum -
Transforming a Community, with Dina Gonzalez-Pina
God longs for shalom, and He's asking us to work towards shalom in our spaces. Every Neighborhood Partnership has adopted the language and frameworks of Christian Community Development to pursue God's shalom! CCD ideas act as the tide beneath the waves of our work here at Every Neighborhood Partnership. Andrew and Grace sit down with Dina Gonzalez-Pina, who has been a member of the board of the Christian Community Development Association and is currently the director of the Mennonite Central Committee on the West Coast. Dina helps us unpack the eight pillars of CCD philosophy and Andrew and Grace tie it back contextually to our work here at ENP.

In Fresno as it is in Heaven, with Daniel Dominguez
In our very first episode of our very first series, we sit down with Daniel Dominguez, Every Neighborhood Partnership's Neighborhood Development Director. Daniel has been on staff with ENP for over 6 years, and is a culture carrier for us here at the organization. We talk about God's heart and vision for not only a city but for a people, and what that means for us as we engage with our neighbors and the poor. You'll hear us reference the Bible a handful of times as we unpack what it means for us to come into alignment with what God would desire when we say, In Fresno as it is in Heaven.
