Compassionate Love of Christ

Meet The Needs (MTN) is a partnership between the Ship of Zion Ministries (SoZ) and other local churches. We strive to meet the practical and urgent needs of some of Raleigh's most neglected people. For more than four years, MTN has endeavored to show the true light of the Gospel by addressing basic needs, including food and clothing, care for the physical body, and most importantly, ministry to spiritual needs.

Methods

Typically on the second Saturday of each month, MTN and SoZ host a free Community Day in the historic South Park area of southeast Raleigh. During these days, lunch is served, groceries are provided to those in need, and there are activities for kids. There is room set aside for for counseling, fellowship, and prayer for healing and deliverance.

Usually a free health screening clinic is part of the outreach. The clients vary in age and walks of life, and we've been able to meet, counsel and pray with elderly grandmothers, teen gang members, and young women who have been abused by life on the streets.

The volunteers involved in MTN endeavor to model the true Church of Jesus Christ by being willing servants, united in love, without distinction for denomination, race, or station in life.

MTN is the Body of Christ reaching out in love to our community with the Good News of new life available through Jesus Christ.
