About
the Group
The purpose of Second Mile Ministries is to serve
and glorify God by encouraging people to a relationship
with Jesus Christ (1) Through love and concern,
(2) Through the presentation of the gospel, and
(3) through practical assistance in living. This
assistance will primarily include food, clothing,
and monetary aid for shelter and utilities. We
also purpose to give practical, emotional, and
spiritual support to the elderly, handicapped,
and homebound.
The workers at Second Mile will endeavor in every
way possible to encourage spiritual growth, emotional
maturity, and financial responsibleness. We desire
to communicate to the needy that they are of great
value in God's eyes and to treat them with compassion
and dignity.
We believe that a right relationship with Christ
is the way to victorious living and to eternal
life. We believe that spiritual growth will come
through consistent prayer, study of the Bible,
and worship/fellowship in an organized body of
Christian believers.
