BYOB – Bring Your Old Blanket (or coat)

Read MoreMinistry… We deliver.
Some call in desperation. Others wait, hoping that someone will show up. How long can we listen to the cries of the people without responding? Jesus told a story of a shepherd with a lost sheep: Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? Luke 15:4 If we wait for the “lost” to come to us, it shows that we are not a “good” shepherd. Jesus modeled the relentless pursuit of the lost when He came here to save us. So should we not do the same? We go...
Read MoreHe shouldn’t have to live like this
My friend in this picture has been homeless for over twenty years. He lived in a small shack in an illegal dumping ground. He didn’t dump the trash, but he did live in it. He tried shelters to no avail. They have crazy rules that sometimes change daily. They treat you like children telling you when to go to sleep and when to wake up. Shelters herd us like animals which makes us feel less than human… People are homeless because of deep problems. Some have drug or alcohol problems, but others have social problems or problems that started at childhood. Out here, no one tells you...
Read MoreGreat Friday Turnout!
Imagine a parking lot one block behind Dallas city hall, with a 12 foot screen, a mountain of popcorn, a great sound system and the most amazing movie you have ever seen… Now imagine you are joined by 180+ friends. What could be better? We had a great time and we would like to thank two great partners in this effort: The Temple of Prayer Christian Fellowship let us use their great parking lot. It was the perfect location, the chairs were great and Pastor Porter was great to work with. We would also like to thank Cinemark Theatres for supplying the fresh...
Read MoreGood Friday Service
Join us on Friday (April 2) for a special outreach. We will host a movie night and remember the death of Jesus by taking communion together with our homeless friends. The movie we will be showing is the newest version of the Jesus Film (the Magdelena) produced by Campus Crusade for Christ. It tells the story of Jesus through the eyes of Mary Magdalene. She was a woman who was rejected by society because of her sin, but loved and forgiven by Christ. We have been given permission to use the parking lot at the corner of Corsicana and Cadiz. The Church is directly beside the old resource center....
Read MoreJoin us 3/13 for a street outreach!
Join us from 1PM to 4PM on Saturday March 13 as we hit the streets of downtown Dallas with clothes, food, personal care items, and the gospel!

We will be praying for the city, the homeless, the ministry, and for God to continue to be glorified in everything that we do. We need your arms to serve! Do I...
