The ministry addresses diverse social needs and focuses on long-term lifestyle changes that are aimed at improving mental, physical and spiritual health.
Through the ministry, we strategically lead and partner with other ministries that care for the most vulnerable in our community. We believe that the key to transforming lives is through the context of the relationships we build in our neighborhoods.
Our ministry team pays attention to the community’s needs and has created ministries of compassion, justice and advocacy and programs to build a bridge between our church and community.
The ministry has provided services in our community since 1998. We have served the specific needs of over 1,400 households.
Our programs include:
• Human Relations: Community development, volunteer services and youth offender rehabilitation.
Kelley Chapel Food Pantry: Feeding the hungry within in the community.
One Great Hour of Sharing: Funds and programs of relief, rehabilitation and service.
