| "Church
With OUT Walls" is an expansion of an existing
Christian Ministry in the Livingston area operating for 7 years
now. The ministry of a married couple have been providing food,
resources, and transporation to the people of Dam Site Village,
Camillia Twin Harbors #4 and #5, and surrounding areas. Helping
people when possible in their time of NEED. That is what true
Christians do.
The described
area is a low income area and has the cloud of poverty, illegal
activities, and drugs influencing the lives of 75 or more families
with 25 or more children in the area.
The
Disciples have decided to provide weekly church services
and through Christian counseling become a local resource guide
to getting the help they need. Providing weekly food assistance
from local food banks would be the first start. Additional resource
assistance as avaialble in abuse, advocacy, child-care, clothing,
Christian counseling, disaster relief, education, employment,
enviornmental, food, healthcare, Hospice, housing, income assistance,
legal services, medications, senior citizens, shelters, support
groups, transportation, and Veteran's affairs
The
Disciples has been providing multiple ministries to the
surrounding areas of Livingston and has been asked to organize
the Christian ministry activities in the area. After short discussion,
providing regular food assistance and starting a local church
with community center, and community garden seemed to be the
next natural steps to helping the people of the area.
