Our Vision Is
To see neighbors in TruLife Communities flourish in life and faith.
Our Mission Is
To offer our neighbors opportunities to experience community, develop holistically –spiritually, emotionally, physically, intellectually, relationally and vocationally-- and encounter the transformative power of God and His Word.
Our Background
During the construction of Bethel Place in Weatherford, Texas, Founder Matt Farris established a nonprofit to serve the neighbors and the surrounding community. Since then, the TruLife Growth Foundation board has hired a couple to serve as Neighborhood Directors at Bethel Place to coordinate flourishing activities. Additionally, the foundation hired a Strategic Community Director to support flourishing at Bethel Place and an Executive Director for the TruLife Growth Foundation.
