We believe strongly that in our outreach,
we must obey Christ to "love
our neighbor". As a church we believe that one of the best ways to be
obedient to Jesus Christ is to reach out to our neighbors in need.
Therefore we have intentionally chosen to host 7
Alcoholics Anonymous meetings a week, one Overeaters Anonymous
meeting a week, as well as occasionally hosting groups that deal with
other painful issues of life. Free Clothing Ministry! We
have two major service ministries to the community that we do because
of the love of Christ. The first is to have the only clothing ministry
in Quincy that is free. We have clothes for all ages available in our
clothing room. If you have a need or know of someone that could benefit
from our free clothing ministry give us a call, (617-471-6806). Our goal
is to provide assistance with
dignity and love. We also ship clothing all over Eastern Massachusetts
and sometimes around the world. The Ruth School (English as a Second Language)

Our Evangelistic efforts are mostly focused on friendship evangelism, with
Christians seeking to tell their friends and neighbors about the Lord.
Our goal is to make the whole congregation focused on obeying the Great
Commission to make disciples of all nations. In addition, we have
workshops and classes for our members on how to share their faith. Quincy Sidewalk Sale - Every
Summer we participate with other
Evangelical churches in distributing bibles, literature and letting
other people know about Jesus.
