  • Ministry of the Month-New Life Mission

    Our outreach Ministry of the Month for June is the New Life Mission which is a long-term transitional housing program committed to provide shelter and invest in the personal and professional development of homeless mothers with children.  It was founded as Brevard Rescue Mission in 2008. It is the mission of New Life Mission to permanently break the cycle of homelessness in families by providing homeless women with children housing, access to health care, transportation, education, nutrition, job training and life skills in a safe, Christ-centered residential setting. As an example for their residents, New Life Mission does not receive government assistance, and they are able to provide Christian teaching and guidance in their programs. More details are available at their website at new life-mission.org.

  • Redeeming Life Ministries

    There are still opportunities to help with Hope’s annual teacher appreciation brunches. The brunch for Trinity Lutheran School teachers will be held on Tuesday, May 6; the date for Sherwood Elementary is the following Tuesday, May 13. We are looking for help with food and with onsite serving for both of these breakfasts to show our gratitude to these faithful workers in our community. Please check the signup sheets in the narthex to see what opportunities to help are still available. For questions, please see Nancy  Roberts.

  • Food on the First - B.L.A.S.T.

    Food on the First is temporarily on hold. Our next food collection will be on August 3rd. With school being out for the summer, we are unable to deliver and the school is unable to distribute. Thank you for your continued support.

  • Hope for the Homeless

    On May 9th, 2025 Daily Bread closed its doors at the Fee Ave location.  Their warehouse is still in full swing as volunteers are working on receiving and sorting donations weekly. They have partnered with South Brevard Sharing Center to allow for their counseling and other programs to continue while Daily Bread works on Providence Place and all that comes with this new program for Brevard County. More information will be provided as it arrives.

    We are still using a Thrivent card to purchased items of greatest need as Daily Bread transition into mobile services. Items such as ponchos, mini umbrellas, tarps, hats, sunscreen, bug spray and necessities via the mobile vehicle which is currently available to members of the community at various locations and times.
