For those battling with all types of issues in the housed and unhoused communities, finding hope can feel impossible, but Be Bold Street Ministries shows up with love and compassion while also emphasizing accountability. This Christ-centered organization utilizes evangelism ministry and dedication to meet people where they are with the Gospel of Jesus Christ as its paramount message.
Be Bold Street Ministries’ work is guided by biblical verses, including:
- 1 Corinthians 15 verse 3: “For I passed on to you as most important what I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures.”
- 1 Corinthians 15 verse 4: “that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.”
Founded on the beliefs that everyone is a candidate for heaven and that Jesus Christ is an equal-opportunity savior, Be Bold Street Ministries takes its mission beyond church walls by going directly into the streets, gangs, homeless encampments, organized crime groups, shelters, schools, universities, businesses, parks, prisons, events, among many other places and community groups.
A Ministry of Faith, Hope, Love, Action, and Truth
Be Bold Street Ministries operates with a simple but powerful purpose of reaching the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And it does so through street outreach, prayer, community engagement, large events, food, clothing, resources, and much more to those experiencing all kinds of hardships. But beyond material support, Be Bold offers things it considers to be even greater: faith, hope, love, and a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
Rather than waiting for people to seek help, Be Bold goes out to them to cultivate and nurture relationships, listening to their stories, sharing the Gospel, and walking alongside them on their journey to healing and stability. Be Bold also walks through immensely difficult times with many people and families within both the housed and unhoused communities.
