Our Homeless Street Outreach program is a continuous effort to help and support the homeless population along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Our outreach workers hit the streets with food, camping supplies, and local resource information while engaging homeless individuals in the streets, at their camps, at other outreach agencies, and anywhere else we can find them. Each interaction is an opportunity to let our homeless neighbors know they are cared for and not forgotten.
The goal of this program is three-fold. First, we try to help meet the basic physical needs of our homeless friends. We do this by providing them with food and supplies such as bug spray, tents, sleeping bags, hygiene items, flashlights, batteries, and more. The second goal of our program is to connect our homeless friends with other agencies that specialize in assisting with deeper challenges such as housing, physical health care, mental health care, job placement, and other services. Finally, we care for the spiritual needs of our homeless friends by sharing the Gospel with those who have not heard it, praying with those who believe, and encouraging everyone to seek God in all things.
