You Do Not Need a Pulpit to Preach the Gospel.
Sometimes the most powerful sermon looks like:
Serving a meal.
Handing someone clean clothes.
Listening to a story.
Driving someone to an appointment.
Sorting donations.
Praying with someone who has lost hope.

Mentoring someone rebuilding their life.

Church Partners
What If Churches Worked Together?
No single ministry can solve homelessness alone.
Jacob’s Well Ministries seeks partnerships with churches that believe the Body of Christ can accomplish more together than we can separately.
Partner churches can help provide:
- Outreach volunteers
- Meals
- Clothing drives
- Hygiene-kit drives
- Financial support
- Prayer teams
- Recovery mentors
- Bible teachers
- Worship teams
- Employment connections
- Professional services
- Transportation assistance
- Special projects
We are not trying to replace the local church.
We want to help connect hurting people to healthy local churches.
Business & Community Partners
Local Problems Require Local Partnerships.
Businesses, civic organizations, professionals, foundations, and community leaders can play an important role in creating meaningful pathways out of homelessness.
Partnerships may include:
- Financial sponsorship
- Job opportunities
- Job training
- Donated supplies
- Professional services
- Construction support
- Property assistance
- Transportation
- Food donations
- Technology
- Educational opportunities
- Community advocacy
Together, we can move beyond temporary relief toward sustainable solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you only serve Christians?
No. We desire to serve people in need with dignity and compassion regardless of their present faith background. We are, however, openly and unapologetically a Christian ministry, and the message and teachings of Jesus Christ are central to who we are.
Do I have to attend church to receive basic outreach assistance?
Availability and requirements may vary by program. Emergency and outreach assistance should never be confused with forced religious conversion. Structured residential, discipleship, or recovery programs may include participation requirements that are explained before enrollment.
Can I donate clothing and supplies?
Yes, based upon current needs and available storage. Please review our current needs list before delivering large quantities.
Can my church volunteer?
Absolutely. Church partnerships are an important part of our vision.
Can businesses partner with you?
Yes. We welcome conversations with businesses interested in sponsorship, employment pathways, in-kind donations, professional services, or community partnerships.
