Mission Statement

Dallas Responds at Oak Lawn United Methodist Church exists to embody Christ’s love and compassion by providing safe spaces, essential support, and advocacy for those on the margins of society. We serve migrant and asylum-seeking communities, unsheltered neighbors in our city, and those facing displacement abroad through our international partnerships, including Safe Spaces Lebanon. Grounded in our commitment to radical hospitality and inclusivity, we strive to meet immediate needs while empowering individuals and families to move forward with dignity and hope. Our work extends to all marginalized communities, embracing diversity and fostering an environment where everyone can experience God’s love, justice, and peace. Together, we build bridges across cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic boundaries, creating a world where compassion leads the way and every person has a place to belong.
