Grace: Mission with an Open Hand

I just returned from a week at the White Mountain Apache Reservation in Arizona. With our partner, Highland Support Project, we’ve been sending service teams to build relationships and engage projects for twelve years. I’ve worked with HSP for almost twenty years now and count their founders, Ben and Lupe Blevins, important friends. In a world of greed and despair and in an ecclesial world where mission often wreaks more grief than good, I believe in HSP’s model of accompaniment for the purpose of empowerment.

I sat down with Ben at Ft. Apache and asked him to share a bit about how his understanding of grace informs the way they do their development work.
