Street Psalms

Through our partnership with the Center for Transforming Mission, the Issachar Community hosts several extended conversations each year, open to the public, about topics that blend theological reflection, urban studies, and spiritual practices.

Others

Issachar regularly hosts small groups of guests on walking tours of urban neighborhoods, learning to see the community “from below,” through the eyes of our poorest neighbors. Occassional community forums, open to the public, address a variety of issues and opportunities facing people in the neighborhoods we serve.
