Pastor Jeremie Davis of Laramie Street Baptist Church prays with South Side Mission Assistant Executive Director, External Ministries, Rev. Craig Williams and representatives from 20 area churches at an Adoptablock Summit, held at South Side Mission February 27th, 2010.There is great power when God's people come together for a common cause. We saw that first hand on Saturday, February 27th at South Side Mission.
Every so often, we convene churches that have signed up to do Adoptablock with South Side Mission in zip code 61605 and those that are interested in joining the team. We praised the Lord together, celebrated the Lord we share in common and compared best practices and stories of lives touched through the ministry of Adoptablock.
Churches represented were:
- Northwoods Community Church
- St. Jude Catholic Church
- City on a Hill Church of Christ
- New Life Church, Morton
- Imago Dei
- Richwoods Christian Church
- Maranatha Fellowship
- We Care Ministries
- New Jerusalem Baptist Church
- Sovereign Grace Missionary Baptist Church
- Laramie Street Baptist Church
- New Beginnings
- Woodland Baptist Church
- Christ Lutheran, Peoria
- Word of Faith
- Fresh Fire, Canton
- New Hope International Ministries
- Abundant Hope
- City of Refuge Worship Center
- United Fellowship
We at South Side Mission are grateful to Dream Center Peoria for introducing us to this vital ministry back in 2002. DCP operates its own Adoptablock program in Taft Homes. Our dream is to someday meet the folks at DCP over by the baseball stadium, declare each of our areas completed and start on the next zip code!
