Additional information
Street outreach is one of the hallmarks of the Outdoor Church’s ministry. Several times throughout the week our ministry team walks the streets of Cambridge to meet with the unhoused, homeless, and street-involved people to offer them spiritual and material support. Our material support
We continue to gather for worship at Porter Square on Sunday mornings, providing donuts, coffee, sandwiches, and socks. Our steadfast Saturday and Sunday afternoon outreach provides sandwiches, water, snacks, and other sundry items such as socks and toiletries. We will also offer hats, gloves, and scarves in the coming cold weather. We continue to hand out water and snacks before gathering on Thursday in the Cambridge City shelter for an evening worship service. We cannot support these ministry events without the help of the many volunteers who make sandwiches, cookies, and muffins and provide water, juice, and snacks. These gifts and support are truly appreciated by the unhoused, homeless, and street-involved community as we help to bring goodwill to their lives.
Our street outreach program has a simple agenda: We want to meet homeless men and women where they are—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—and offer them whatever support we can.
