Current Outreach / Missions Partners
Maranatha’s Outreach and Missions Auxiliary supports with prayer and finances several ministries who provide a variety of services and who share the same core values as we do.
- OPEN DOOR MINISTRIES: strives to alleviate homelessness and hunger through their ministry of healing and hope. Maranatha provides breakfast for the 100 plus men every first and third Sundays. (Minister Vanessa Smith)
- LOVE LIFE: Maranatha joins thousands of believers from local churches and community leaders for a prayer walk outside the darkest places in our cities – the local abortion center. Every prayer walk consists of a time of prayer, worship, testimonies. (Minister Chandrea Richardson)
- LESLIE’S HOUSE: provides a safe haven for homeless women (ages 18 and older without dependents). Maranatha helps to provide respite and encouragement towards good choices which aid the women in creating a positive and self-sufficient life. (Minister Gaynelle Jackson)
- BELIEVE IN THREE – an evangelism program desiring to reach the lost while showing the love of God in a practical way. ( Minister Archie Herring)
