Ship of Zion
Ship of Zion proclaims the love of Christ to inner city residents by providing them with food, clothing and care and ministering to their spiritual needs without distinction for denomination, race or place in life. Ship of Zion serves a diverse population ranging from the economically disadvantaged and physically disabled to drug addicts, alcoholics, prostitutes and gang members.
On the second Saturday of each month, Hope sends volunteers to partner with Ship of Zion's "Community Day" outreach. Volunteers have the opportunity to pray with visitors from the community, serve them lunch, distribute groceries and help with medical screening.
Ship of Zion is also in need of seasoned volunteers who can help with a jobs training program for gang members.
