OUTREACH & MISSIONS MINISTRIES - Through these ministries we are able to share the love of Jesus Christ for the salvation of souls, the return of backsliders and recommitting of lives to Christ; providing spiritual, social and educational activities to the community; provide training and practical experiences to those whose hearts are drawn to serve in this area. We are committed to The Great Commission – Mark 16: 15-19 AND Matthew 25: 34-40.
Our areas of operation include - Evangelism at each event; Feeding the Homeless; Elder Care via visits to Nursing Homes; Assistance to the Sick and Shut-in; Host Community Events; as well as Holiday Clothing and Food Drives.
Evangelism
During 2023 we were blessed to be able to reach and reap a harvest for the Kingdom. The word of God promises that he that wins souls is wise! Soul winning is not without rewards - the scripture promises a crown of joy to those who win souls. The number of souls won for the kingdom would be less than 100, but we know the harvest is ripe and we will go to the Lord’s field, and He adds to His body, those that are to be saved.
Feeding the Homeless
We provide nutritious, hot home cooked meals and we ensure that each meal contains a selection from the major food groups and include a drink and also water. We believe we served over 500 such meals for the calendar year 2023 and we expect this to increase for the coming year as we are blessed.
One of the highlights of our activities was our December efforts in providing weather and gender specific essential items, adopting of families and providing them all the necessary items needed for the family and family dinner including gift for all members.
Elder Care via visits to Nursing Homes
We visit, assess the need and provide as needed. We do not publicize the recipients, nor the quantity of help given, whether in goods, services, cash or kind. We have several thankful benefactors, and all the glory goes to our Jehovah Jireh for His unfailing provision. In April, we were able to provide Large Print Bibles, Crosswords, Puzzles; Hygiene Supplies, and Comfort & Wellbeing Care items to local Adult Care Facility to assist various residents.
Host Community Events
One such was “Praise in the Park.” Since Covid we have not had an event but stay tuned –
Holiday Clothing and Food Drives
This is a continuous effort as we provide clothing through the Prison Ministry, persons who we know are in need, persons who are referred or who just pass by the church to ask for help. In January this year, we sponsored a Clothing/Toiletry Drive. All items were donated to a Prison Ministry’s Thrift Store, to help those previously incarcerated & now on their way to rebuilding their lives. This gives us such joy to be able to help!
UPCOMING EVENTS:
• Feeding the Homeless - with physical & spiritual nourishment.
• Caring for the Homeless - with physical & spiritual nourishment, we will also hand out seasonal packs.
• We "Adopt" Families/Elderly in need during the Thanksgiving & Christmas Holidays providing their meal as well as Christmas toys for their children.
• Dates TBD for our end of year Clothing Drives that we give in Donation to support a local Prison Ministry.
Finally, our Evangelism, Outreach and Missions activities are currently solely funded by the giving of the people of God. All our events include providing devotional literature, weather specific items and gender specific personal effects and supplies. We always share the Good News of Jesus Christ, feeding the body, prayer and encouragement and referrals. We encourage you to partner with us as we see the need for our services increase greatly. We accept gifts of cash and kind to assist in meeting the great need that is present within our communities.

TARGETING GROWTH AT EVERY LEVEL
- Children Between the Ages of 3-6, 7-12 & 13-17 (The Precious Diamondz): The Bible says in Proverbs 22:6 – Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. We are committed to working with each age group to get children to the level in which they will become their best for the cause of the Ministry. Our programs at Speak Life Church are concerned about you.
- Young Adults Between the Ages of 18-30 (The Breath of Fresh Air): This is the age where it’s going to require your involvement, your voice and your commitment to the ministry. It is absolutely important for you to come together and keep one another encouraged. Our programs at Speak Life Church are concerned about you because this is the age where you must make decisions is where your life will take off like a rocket and if you make the wrong decision your life can spiral out of control, and you could crash and burn. We are here.
- Adults Between the Ages of 31-44 (The Energizers): You have made your decisions. You have good direction with your life. The Ministry needs you. You know your place in Ministry, and you must get there to do what you are called to do.
- Seasoned Adults Between the Ages of 45-60 (The Motivators): You are here to stay. Your foundation is solid. Your work in Ministry is what you are doing. You are a Leader. You are to be respected. Others want to look to you to pattern their lives like you.
- Saintly Adults Between Ages 61 & Above (The Crown Jewels): You are our solid rock. You are established and sure.
