Praxis

We are deeply grateful to photographers Braedon Flynn and Steph Smith for in capturing what it's like in our Praxis community. It's a joy to share the stories of our Praxis community through photos that show collaboration in good, hard work.

Earlier this month, the Praxis team went offsite to Indianapolis, where we celebrated wins, met the local redemptive entrepreneurship ecosystem, and discussed new ideas. We're grateful for the chance to pause in our routine for dedicated time together. In the spirit of the Time commitment in A Rule of Life for Redemptive Entrepreneurs (https://lnkd.in/gu3T4qvq): "We hope for abundance in the form of joy at work well done, a diminished sense of hurry and anxiety, embodied enjoyment of creation, and delight at God's provision for us while we rest."

Earlier this month, our team had the opportunity to visit the Old Town team at North End, in Carmel, IN, where 40 of its 168 apartments are permanently designated as attainable units for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. It was a joy to see the redemptive work in this community.
