OUR MISSION
The mission of the Greater Dallas Coalition is to unite churches, ministries, businesses, individuals and non-profits to serve and empower the under-resourced Southern Sector of Dallas.
The Greater Dallas Coalition is a collaborative, organic, missional movement established to transform the city of Dallas spiritually and socially. The Coalition functions as a confederation of churches and para-church organizations that demonstrate a Christ-centered, missional approach to South Dallas.
We equip Partner organizations that initiate spiritual and social transformation by providing outreach resources, leadership training, and program development. We define success as developing leaders who are committed to the area and the people who live here, ultimately looking for lives to be transformed by the true source of life and peace, Jesus Christ.
