Our rest home ministry is our way of being a comfort to
those who are confined and unable to attend regular
church services in our local nursing homes.

We enjoy singing, and fellowshipping with the residents,
and it is an opportunity for us to reach them with the
Gospel, through Bible preaching and one on one
witnessing. Well into our third year in this ministry, we have
seen abundant fruit as more than a dozen of these precious
souls have received Christ as their Savior, and many others
have received help and comfort from the preaching of the
Scriptures.

(KJV) Proverbs 16:19 Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the
proud.

(KJV) 1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in
conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

We wish to provide an opportunity for our teens and young people
to fellowship with other believers of their age group, in a relaxed,
but supervised setting. Many outings provide the physical
recreation needed for energetic youth, while other activities get
them involved in the work of the ministry, helping to get the Gospel
out to a lost world. We believe youth activities should have this
balance, to help build our next generation of Christian leaders.

(KJV) Romans 10:15b How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad
tidings of good things!

Canvassing the streets of Xenia, we are able to offer a
personal invitation, filled with a variety of Gospel tracts, to our
neighbors. Many times we have the opportunity to give a full
presentation of the Gospel to those who will allow us that
privilege. It is our desire to make sure that everyone has the
chance to come to the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus
Christ. Opportunity is provided any day of the week for those
who wish to go out and tell others.
Last year we had the opportunity to lead several souls to
Christ, and many others received the packets and witness
with the promise to read and consider the material. We are
excited to see what the Lord has in store as we begin another
season in this ministry.

Ministries

Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint
not; But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in
craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the
truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
II Corinthians 4:1-2

Home

(KJV) Luke 14:23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and
compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

Street Evangelism

Whether it's preaching and passing out tracts
on downtown streets and parks, or walking
through the crowds of the various area festivals,
we use the many opportunities available to us to
pass out thousands of gospel tracts and give a
personal witness to those who will stop and talk
with us about the Lord Jesus Christ.
