~Bible Clubs are provided for community children within a three mile radius of Brinkley Heights Church in north Memphis, Tennessee. Mission groups are assigned to help conduct Bible Club sites.
~Reading Clubs are provided to help improve the literacy level of our children. High student to teacher ratios in our schools do not meet the individual reading needs of our community children. Our kids are at the point of starvation for love and encouragement and need this important but often neglected educational skill. Mission groups will be used to meet this need with individualized care.
~Nursing Home Visitation is an important ministry of Street Reach. With the hustle and bustle of inner-city life, the elderly are often neglected and treated as “throwaway” citizens. Mission groups will be assigned to visit one or two community extended health care homes to assist in games, talent shows, and one to one quality love and care sessions.
Street Reach offers mission trip opportunities every spring and summer for student and adult mission groups. Acts of service include: Backyard Bible Clubs, minor repair and painting of homes, mowing lawns, taking part in daily sports camps, and many more community projects. The following explains how our mission teams participate.
~Minor Home Repair and Lawn Service is provided to elderly and single mother families dependent on fixed income or no income.
