323! Missions
Sumter, South Carolina,
United States
 As a fellowship, we are not about programs and policies, but all about people!
Behind every individual we hope to serve is a story, a life that includes passions and hurts, dreams and failure, hopelessness and helplessness. Every one is a unique individual and we have always desired to meet the needs on a one-by-one basis and to never take a canned approach to people.
People, regardless of their current condition, are just more valuable than that. And again, Jesus never did that, and we are called to be like Him. He was a servant. The word minister means "servant". We serve people and that is what we hope to continue with the community fellowship.

Statement of Housing Non-discrimination:
Our community does not discriminate in regards to housing based on race/color, national origin, religion, sex/gender, family status (i.e. having children, not having children, or being pregnant), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, ancestry, source of income, age, creed, personal appearance, political affiliation, HIV infection, military/veteran status, unfavorable military discharge, gender identity or expression, receiving public assistance, or being the victim of domestic abuse.

Because our housing is a single housing unit and requires the sharing of bathroom, kitchen and common space membership/residency may be restricted based on sex/gender in accordance with the law. Our community does not discriminate based on race/color, national origin, religion, family status (i.e. having children, not having children, or being pregnant), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, ancestry, source of income, age, creed, personal appearance, political affiliation, HIV infection, military/veteran status, unfavorable military discharge, gender identity or expression, receiving public assistance, or domestic abuse.

Our community is a legally sanctioned church or religious organization and living in our community is restricted to members of that religion as allowed by law. Our religion does not discriminate based on race, color, or national origin. Housing in our community is non-commercial (i.e. not intended to make a profit).

Our community does not provide land or housing and is therefore not subject to fair housing laws.
