Hope Plaza Resource Fairs

With a deep sense of purpose and hope, Faith invites you to join us in making a meaningful impact in our community here in Mason County, Washington.

"Hope Plaza is an extension of God's mission for Faith Lutheran Church of Shelton: to be a welcoming community...serving our neighbors..."

Our Mission

To provide bilingual services to all clients by offering a comprehensive location that connects communities with hands-on essential resources, eliminating barriers and enhancing community support.

Our Vision

Faith and its ministry partners at the 2024 Bite of Shelton

To be a central hub in Western Washington where all community members have access to essential resources and services, fostering inclusivity, equality, and wellbeing.

Every day, we see firsthand the challenges that many of our neighbors face—language barriers, lack of access to essential resources, and feelings of isolation. Our goal is to bridge these gaps by creating a welcoming space where everyone, regardless of their background, can find the support they need.
