we are family

We are radically inclusive and reach out to ALL people regardless of faith, race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, or any other barrier to fulfilling the greatest purpose in life ... to serve and love one another. 

our cornerstone
We believe in cutting through all of the religious bigotry & intolerance and following in the footsteps of those who preceded us 2,000 years ago, being drawn through love to getavision for a sharing community among ALL people.

"The community of believers was of one heart and mind, and no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they had everything in common.  With great power the apostles bore witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great favor was accorded them all.  There was no needy person among them, for those who owned property or houses would sell them, bring the proceeds of the sale, and put them at the feet of the apostles, and they were distributed to each according to need."
(Acts 32-35)
 

about us

The getavision programs are a part of Metropolitan Community Charities, a 501(c) non-profit charitable organization, and are designed to encourage and support people in leading the way into a new era of love, compassion and charity among all people throughout the world, spearheading economic and health-related social justice initiatives and programs.

Building on a revolutionary foundation of social justice and faith in action, Metropolitan Community Charities (MCCharities) and the getavision programs were officially inaugurated in New York City at the Stonewall Inn on Christopher Street on June 29, 2009, the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall Revolution.

Inspired by revolutionary Rev. Troy Perry, who founded Metropolitan Community Churches in 1968, one year prior to the Stonewall Revolution, our goal is to lead the way into a new era of love, compassion and charity among all peoples throughout the world.
