HOW WE HELP OTHERS
Street Ministry
The street ministry hits the streets of Las Vegas 2 or 3 times a month all over the city.
We hand out food, necessities, resources and information on Christian recovery programs. Most importantly, we give our testimonies, pray for people, and love them exactly where they are.
We also provide the directors cell number so homeless folks can call regarding resources to get off the streets and transportation to resources.
Resources include housing assessments, sober living, ID / Birth Certificates, Christ centered 12 step programs, and emergency housing.
TRANSITIONAL HOUSING SOBER LIVING
WHEN WE COME ACROSS SOMEONE HOMELESS WHO HAS AN INCOME OR WHO IS ABLE TO WORK WE WILL PLACE THEM INTO TRANSITIONAL HOUSING.
2 ACT MINISTRIES WILL COVER THE COST FOR 30 DAYS OR MORE TO ALLOW THAT PERSON TO GET ON THIER FEET AND TRANSITION FROM HOMELESS TO HOUSED.
AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE HOUSING PROGRAM FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS, 2 ACT MINISTRIES WILL, AT THAT TIME, PROVIDE DEPOSIT ASSISTANCE TO PLACE THEM IN PERMANENT HOUSING
Care Packages
Through your support thousands of care packages have been assembled and distributed to the homeless.
These care packages include essential needs such as: socks, deodorant, lotion, chapstick, toothpaste, toothbrush, brushe/comb, razor, feminine products, soap, shampoo, wet wipes, and q-tips. Most importantly it includes the Gospel of Jesus Christ AND information on much needed resources.
HOMELESS SHELTER OUTREACH
STAYING IN A SHELTER IS MUCH BETTER THAN BEING ON THE STREETS, BUT PEOPLE STAYING AT THE SHELTERS STILL NEED ITEMS JUST TO SURVIVE.
THEY MAY BE IN A SHELTER BUT STILL IN NEED OF UNDERWEAR, SOCKS, TOLIETRIES, SEASONAL ITEMS, BIBLES AND FOOD.
WE DO OUTREACH AT THE SHELTERS FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND SINGLE INDIVIDUALS WHERE WE NOT ONLY PROVIDE MUCH NEEDED NECCESITIES, BUT ALSO SPITRITUAL NEEDS.
HOUSING ASSISTANCE
IF WE COME ACROSS SOMEONE CURRENTLY HOMELESS OR FACING HOMELESSNESS, WE WILL ASSIST WITH ONE TIME RENT OR A DEPOSIT TO HELP SOMEONE GET OFF THE STREETS OR NOT END UP ON THE STREETS
(THIS ALL DEPENDS ON AVAILABLE FUNDS)
PARK OUTREACH FOR THE HOMELESS and less fortunate community
We provide a hot meal, food for later, snacks, desserts, care packages, clothing and seasonal items for over 100 homeless and less fortunate people. These are at different parks around the city.
Before the meal the Gospel is preached, testimonies are given, and prayer is offered to all. The power of the Gospel and the Holy Spirit is at work letting them know, through Jesus, there is a place where there is no homelessness.
Every week we assist people to get off the street, out of the park and into Christian transitional / sober living.
We also help with tickets home, ID's, birth certificates, housing assessments and other much needed resources.
Emergency Housing and
ticket to home assistance
People sometimes fall on unexpected hard times and it leaves them stranded on the street without anywhere to go and without any knowledge of who to turn to for help.
The Emergency Housing Ministry assists people to get off the street for the evening and gets them plugged into resources.
For women with children or pregnant women, 2 Act Ministries will find them a shelter to sleep at, if no shelter is available, other arrangements are made. Men are set up in a homeless hostel. Sleeping with a roof over their head and surrounded by walls makes a big difference. Because of this a number of families and women did not end up on the streets.
The ticket to home program assists homeless folks to get back home with thier families.

hope chapel outreach
2 or 3 times a month you can find 2 Act Ministries at the Hope Chapel ministering and providing the Gospel, food, care packages, clothes, underwear and seasonal items to the homeless. Before chapel prayer is offered, then chapel services then afterward we pass out the much-needed essentials.
