About Us

Hyaets is a faith-based, non-profit organization
covenanting to inspire, enrich & embody community.

Hyaets is a community building organization which branches out in several directions, including an urban ministry, an intentional Christian community, and retreat experiences. The ministries of Hyaets are based upon a holistic, relational, need-meeting model. At the core of Hyaets is an intentional Christian community that lives in a low-income, high-risk area of Charlotte, North Carolina to minister with and learn from those that society would call “the least of these.” This community partners with individuals, families, churches, and parachurch organizations to provide a number of ministries to the poor, marginalized, and forgotten of Charlotte. Through these ministries and partnerships, Hyaets seeks to inspire, enrich, and embody community by building bridges between the poor and the affluent.
