OUTREACH & HELPS MINISTRY

Outreach and Helps Ministry

At The Way Church of Joliet, we believe our first responsibility is to touch the lives of the people outside of the church walls, by providing the best help to men, woman and children who are not saved or who have lost hope; by demonstrating that Christ cares. The goals of the following groups are to show acts of kindness and love outside of the church.

This group oversees the church’s response to the hungry, the needy, the crisis-affected by food baskets, clothing drives, and care packages.

These are the saints who hit the streets passing out pamphlets, invitations, witnessing, and inviting people to come to church and meet our Christ.

Jail and Prison

Carrying the gospel and the worship experience to the incarcerated.

School Connections

Partnering with the high school and middle school that are visible from our front yard in attempts to make a better environment for learning and living after school is over.

Nursing Homes

Showing love to those who are residents and patients in long-term facilities. They hold worship services and take gifts at special times of the year to let these elderly and impaired know that they have not been forgotten.

Neighborhood Impact

Church making a difference in the community in which it is located? Does the church have a positive impact on the neighborhood? If the church were to move out of the neighborhood, would it be missed? These are questions that these groups get energy and marching orders from.
