Our Ministry is based on our Mission declaration. “We dedicate our efforts in serving God by serving the poor and needy through CHRIST - Christian Education; Health and Economic Projects; Research and Publication; Integrated Development Projects; Services for Community and Church Growth; and Team Spirit Building”.
Christian Education and Bible Studies for the poor in Dallas
We offer spiritual support by educating and connecting the poor and homeless to small cell groups and fellowship meetings. Christian education is important in raising people’s awareness so that they can avoid living on the streets, using illegal drugs, or involving themselves in prostitution. We conduct weekly Bible studies and organise fellowship gatherings. On Sundays, we pick up people from the streets and take them to a Sunday worship service.
Health and Economic Projects
We promote holistic health and development by assisting the poor and needy with their medical needs. We do medical missions and train community leaders to advance health and hygiene. We assist in programmes like drug rehabilitation, alcohol de-addiction, and AIDS prevention and care. We also provide rehabilitated people with financial and material assistance to set up self-employment facilities.
Reaching the Homeless in Dallas
We regularly organise programmes for the poor and homeless. Every year, we feed thousands of the homeless; we wash their feet and provide new socks; we offer haircuts to hundreds of people; we distribute winter blankets to needy people; and we distribute thousands of health and hygiene kits. We pick up homeless people from the streets and assist them in washing their clothes. We provide the homeless with access to a place where they can decently live.
Integrated Development Projects
We promote the welfare of women and children. We envision providing a positive environment where poor women can be empowered to decide for themselves. We provide possibilities for poor and orphaned children to raise their awareness and improve their living situation. Most of our integrated development projects are being implemented in India and Philippines. As a part of these projects, we have orphanages and tailoring institutes in India and in Philippines.
