Jeff O’Rourke – Mosaic Christian Community

I really appreciate pastor Jeff because the ministry he has in mind and how he tries to serve the community according to the communities’ needs. The church resides in east Saint Paul with a great diversity of residents. Because of that, he really pays attention to the need of each ethnic group. The ministry that drew me to the church is their scared settlement ministry where they provide tiny home housing for the homeless community in the east St. Paul area. Moreover, I really appreciate the immigrant connection ministry. They assist first generation immigrants and refugees to apply the right documentation and offer them the assistance they need to navigate life here in the US. I also appreciate the block parties they host during summer. I was able to meet a lot children around the neighborhood that aren’t Christians and I was able to build good relationships with them through the block parties. These ministries showed me a lot about Pastor Jeff’s integrity and his heart for the community. I believe he’s one of the few pastors I know that does more than he says. In a world where there is so much hatred and tension, I believe actions speaks louder than words, and pastor Jeff does an amazing job at it.
