WAYS TO PARTNER WITH JOURNEY OF HOPE
Journey of Hope is always looking for people to help join us make an impact for our local homeless community. There are four ways to do that.
​
1.) Prayer- It's the most important way to help. Please partner with us in prayer. Pray for us as leaders that God will guide us. Pray for the people that we come across that they will encounter Christ through us.
​
2) Monetarily- it takes money to run a ministry. Journey of Hope also has a vision of owning its own building where we can help the homeless with food needs, hygiene needs, and also offer classes to help with life necessities, working on a budget, and skills to help obtain a job.
​
3) Through donations of items for Blessing Bags. Blessing Bags are given to those that are currently living in the TENT COMMUNITIES. Every bag contains non-perishable food, hygiene items, and various essential items. See our list of items below.
​
4) Volunteer opportunities are needed by helping make blessing bags, collecting donation items or participate in our distribution days
