Counseling - Biblical

Center City Evangelical Free Church

Biblical Counseling focuses on bringing hope through God's Word. We believe that the Bible addresses every spiritual problem as laid out in 2 Timothy 3:15-17. Since the Bible gives us instruction for every spiritual issue those who have a personal relationship with Christ are able to point their brothers and sisters in Christ towards a deeper understanding of God and His Word and that brings lasting change. We believe that our problems are related to our understanding of God and that as we find out what the Bible actually has to say about God we are better able to live our lives in a manner pleasing to Christ.

Food & Physical Needs

The Rock at Noon Day

“Showing people the compassion of Christ to introduce them to the salvation of Christ.” The Rock at Noonday exists to offer hope to the homeless in Albuquerque through the life changing gospel of Jesus Christ. We foster relationships by providing a lunchtime meal to a population that often goes overlooked, and we offer a way to help them get back on their feet. We hear countless stories from those who come through our doors—of addiction, abuse, neglect, bad luck, bad choices. Far more than needing food for their stomachs, these homeless and destitute individuals need the Bread of Life—the love of Christ to transform their lives and renew their hearts. That is the only hope for any of us for real life change, and we offer it through a meal. Last year we served more than 145,000 meals to the homeless and materially poor, and the demand has only increased. So far this year we are serving more than 370 meals every day, and we need your help. We see daily examples of the homeless problem across Albuquerque’s street corners. But through your support of the Rock at Noonday, you can help be part of the solution. We depend on the generous support of our local community to provide these meals and services. Your donation enables us to provide tangible, life-affirming service to the homeless, hungry, and hurting in our city and provide them with the message of real hope in Jesus Christ. Please consider how you can help and partner with us today!

Legal Assistance for Children

Pegasus Legal Services for Children

Our Story Pegasus was founded in 2002 by two Albuquerque lawyers, Tara Ford and Liz McGrath. Both attorneys had worked as lawyers for children and youth in foster care and had seen the benefits of having a skilled lawyer to advocate for these vulnerable children. Their experience led them to believe that children and youth outside of the foster care system would also benefit from access to legal services. Pegasus was incorporated under New Mexico state law in April of 2002, and received its initial 501(c)(3) determination letter in February of 2003. Pegasus provides civil legal services to children and youth in dire situations. Most of the clients we serve have suffered extreme hardships such as abuse and neglect. Pegasus is committed to helping them find positive, long-term solutions. We offer a unique range of services to homeless and runaway youth, teen parents, children in the abuse/neglect system, children being raised by their grandparents, and children who have been denied appropriate educational services. Pegasus prides itself on providing comprehensive, high quality legal services to the most vulnerable children and youth in New Mexico.
