Homeless Ministry can begin immediately after training and with minimal investment and resources.Jail and Prison Ministry can begin after training and registration with facilities intended. Personal hygiene items can be purchased at Dollar tree and donations can be solicited to continue or expand.Nursing Home Ministry can begin after training, contacting facilities and receiving permission. Its shorter process than jails and prisons.

Expanding Outreach Missions

Consistent Outreach with committed and trained ministry members is not only possible but necessary. A church is not really a church if all they do is done inside the church, only for church members and only on Tuesday and Sunday. On-site Food Pantry This mission needs area, stocking and committed volunteers to sustain and be effective. Completion of site, establishment of donors, creation of paperwork, marketing and training are required to begin.
