D. Michael Lindsay, Leading Author & Sociologist at Rice Endorses ServLife

“ServLife is restoring hope around the globe in creative and collaborative ways. We need a lot more of this, especially as our world becomes increasingly polarized—politically, economically, and socially. The great thing about ServLife is that it works directly with indigenous peoples as partners in the Gospel and in meeting the needs of the poor and protecting the vulnerable. I encourage you to jump in and get involved.”
