Seeds of Hope – Earthen Vessels Outreach is an outreach mission located in the Bloomfield, Garfield and the Friendship Area of Pittsburgh. They offer programs for youth, many of whom are “at-risk youth,” while also reaching out to their families. Their mission is to sow “the Seed of Hope,” Jesus Christ, in their hearts. The vision is to be a cross-cultural Church with blended worship that reflects the community we serve. Our passion is for the children and youth of our community and the poor and needy who struggle as we share with them the Love of God that we have come to know and trust in Christ Jesus.
