Jesus was once asked, “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” He replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.” – Matthew 22:37-39

Born out of a deep love for God, Jericho Partnership exists to share the love of Christ by serving our neighbors in urban Danbury – the underserved, the disadvantaged, the struggling, the poor, the hungry … the most vulnerable.
