Where We Work: Epicenters and Model Implementers
In 2018 we felt God was calling us to help equip and empower the countless people sitting in churches nationwide, not just in the Pacific Northwest, who care about addressing the issues affecting their neighbors. Our way of doing this was by launching the Compassion Network. Our church and community partners in the Compassion Network fall into two categories: epicenters and implementers.
Epicenters are robust local expressions of Compassion Connect. They take our name, provide leadership, raise funding, and are invested in spreading unity and compassion in their region. They benefit from shared services that Compassion Connect provides.
Implementers are communities that implement a Compassion Connect service model (Compassion Clinics, Adorned in Grace, Compassion Care Centers). They receive resources and coaching from Compassion Connect.
