From Crisis to Hope

Across the Twin Cities, many families and individuals face overwhelming challenges every day – empty cupboards, unpaid bills, employment setbacks, grief, loneliness, and spiritual discouragement. They worry about their family and how they’ll make it through another day. Crises can leave people feeling unseen and unsure where to turn for help.

But no one should walk through hardship alone. And because of your generosity, they don’t have to.

At Jericho Road Ministries, we joyfully come alongside our urban neighbors in their moment of crisis – offering practical help, compassionate support, and the hope of Christ. Believing every person is created and loved by God, we seek to live out Jesus’ call to care for our neighbor in need (Luke 10). Your generosity makes this ministry possible.

How Your Support Changes Lives

Your generosity provides holistic, Christ-centered care that meets immediate needs and helps neighbors take steps toward lasting restoration through food support, financial assistance, crisis care, and spiritual care.

Food Support

Helping families and individuals stay nourished and cared for through:

  • Weekly produce distributions

  • A community food pantry

  • Hygiene items and daily essentials

Spiritual Care

Ensuring those seeking spiritual support receive:

  • Prayer and encouragement

  • A safe place to share their story with someone who cares

  • Connection to local churches

When you support Jericho Road Ministries, you offer both practical help and hope!

  • Families are fed, housed, and supported

  • Individuals regain stability, dignity, and confidence

  • Neighbors encounter Christ’s love in practical and meaningful ways

Without this support, more families would face hunger, eviction, and discouragement.
