Our Work at Empact Ministries
Shelter Outreach
We are very fortunate to be able to go to our own homes, provide for our own food, and afford our own clothes. However, there are many that have fallen on hard times and are unable to experience this.
Our Vision
Empact Ministries’ vision is to "Serve Those in Need."
Our Mission
Provide assistance to shelters, families in need, and other nonprofits within and outside the local community, and support Christian Ministries and missions within the local community and abroad.
Services
It is important to us to be clear about what services we provide to those that are in need. This list details some of our initiatives that we need your support in.
Helping Hands
Trying to provide the necessary service to those that need it can be an overwhelming task because the needs are so great. However, by providing 'helping hands' and services that may not be available by other organizations, we can help to fill that void.
