Our Organizations

We are a Christian nonprofit organization in Louisville, KY dedicated to showing God’s love through providing care, encouragement, and support to the international students that have come to our city to study.

We exist to promote cross-cultural friendships, offer hospitality, and share the love of God with international students.
