About Us


Our Pillars

Linking 
  The Clearinghouse serves as a hub of information and referral services.  We respond to immediate and short-term needs by linking individuals to area churches and agencies that can help.
Equipping 
  Churches are developing ministries and performing more and more outreach into their communities; therefore, Good Samaritan Ministries is partnering with and equipping churches by offering them ministry opportunities, training, and congregational coaching.  We also continue to pursue grants that increase church capacity and programming
Building 
  Beyond the Walls brings churches together for mutual support and coordinated planning of community ministry. With support from Good Samaritan Ministries and other community leaders and organizations, Beyond the Walls churches engage their congregations in addressing critical community needs.
Impacting 
  Good Samaritan's Affiliated Programs work with local churches, government agencies and service organizations to address targeted needs in the community.
