Lady In The Hood is the story of one woman’s journey from the privileged life of a New York debutante to the establishment of an inner-city mission in a drug and gang infested East Dallas neighborhood.

Born into a family of wealth and
social prominence, Dorothy Moore was raised with all the trappings of
the East Coast elite: a nanny, private schools and European vacations.

Dorothy eventually found a dynamic personal relationship with Christ that forever transformed her “elite” attitudes into those of a true servant, and led to the establishment of a ministry that has impacted hundreds of lives.

See how one “lady” obeyed Christ, crossing social, economic, racial
and gender barriers to reach out to “the hood”—a once forgotten corner
of urban blight that is now touched by the hope of transformation that
comes from a great God!
