In Fresno as It Is in Heaven, with Daniel Dominguez

Episode One of What’s Good in the Neighborhood has launched! Subscribe where you get podcasts!

In our very first episode of our very first series, we sit down with Daniel Dominguez, Every Neighborhood Partnership’s Neighborhood Development Director. Daniel has been on staff with ENP for over 6 years, and is a culture carrier for us here at the organization. We talk about God’s heart and vision for not only a city but for a people, and what that means for us as we engage with our neighbors and the poor. You’ll hear us reference the Bible a handful of times as we unpack what it means for us to come into alignment with what God would desire when we say, In Fresno as it is in Heaven.

Embrace: CCDA National Conference Reflections

From October 4th-7th, 10 people from the ENP team went to Cincinnati for the Christian Community Development Association National Conference.  This year’s theme was “Embrace,” as we explored embracing love, truth, righteousness, and peace alongside other Christian community development practitioners.  We heard from dynamic speakers, bonded as a team, networked with others from Fresno and around the country, and learned practical tips from others serving in similar contexts.

Data for Your Neighborhood

At ENP, we get excited about maps and data.  We believe that in order to love your neighbors and your neighborhood, you have to know them.  This includes data that tells a bigger story of the trends of each neighborhood, as well as individual, personal stories that data cannot capture. 

ENP has created data sheets of Fresno neighborhoods as a resource for churches and community partners who want to learn more about their neighborhoods so they can make informed decisions and take relevant action steps.  We focus on neighborhoods as they are defined by elementary school zones, for a total of 92 neighborhoods in the City of Fresno.

Entering 2023 with Applications from Isaiah 65

One way that Every Neighborhood Partnership lives out our value of being a Jesus-centered organization is by having devotionals during our staff meetings and retreats.  These devotionals include Scripture readings or other types of character or leadership development topics.

Isaiah 65:17-25 is a Bible passage that has long been a driving motivation for ENP’s work.  We commissioned the “In Fresno as it is in Heaven” artwork based in part on this passage (you can read more about it here) and at our Fall 2022 staff retreat, we examined those verses together.
