 Local
Missions
Our goal is to work with churches in reaching the needs of people in
their immediate communities. We also help those who come directly to
our facility.
We work with churches by providing them with food, clothing, and
household items to those in their immediate community who are in need.
We would like to see churches discover the needs of those people, come
to us for necessary supplies, and then return to their communities to
distribute the items personally. This creates a relationship between
the local church and their community. Once the relationship is
established between the church and the people of the community, the
door is opened to meet the spiritual needs of the people who have had
their physical needs met.
All assistance and supplies are available at no charge. All items are
donated and are therefore freely given.
 From our main facility in Newport, TN we provide churches and the local community with:
- Prescription Assistance - Through our ministry we have
access to 29 free or low-cost prescription assistance programs.
Applications are taken at our main facility and sent in to prescription
assistance providers who then contact the applicant directly.
- Food - Our goal is to provide food to local churches and other Christian
ministries to help meet the physical needs and open the door
to meet the spiritual needs of the community.
- Furniture
- We provide furniture to those who have lost their belongings in a
fire or other physical disaster as well as those who for whatever
reason can not afford to buy furniture.
- Clothing
- We offer clothing to those who are unable to buy new clothing or have
lost their home and belongings in a fire or other physical disaster.
- School Supplies
- We deliver school supplies to several local and area schools for
children who can not afford the required supplies for school. This
includes Cocke County and surrounding counties.
- Bibles and Tracts - We provide free Bibles and tracts to area churches.
- Mission Training
- We help local churches prepare for mission trips by assisting
them with defining the objective of their mission trip, providing
passport applications, fundraising ideas, culture specific training,
and administrative support to help ensure a successful mission trip.
