The Neighborhood Christian Center has been blessed by the opportunities God has given us for more than 25 years. We began as a small non-profit with a few ministries and currently have numerous ministries including Jail/Prison, Hispanic, Summer Youth, Backyard Bible Club, Christmas Toy Store/Sponsorship, Adult Bible Studies, Food Pantry, Clothes Closet, Transition Homes, and Workforce Development. All of these ministries have something in common...they focus on Education & Discipleship. Even on Neighbors Day when people come looking for physical needs, we dig deeper and see what spiritual needs they have and if they know Jesus as their Savior. A majority of our educational classes are taught in the Morgan County Jail. We have been very blessed to be able to teach so many classes in there, 7 days a week. Sometimes we are fortunate enough to hear from people who have been impacted by our ministries. Here is some of a letter we just received from a former inmate:
“I just want to write to you to say thank you for everything you are doing. I have learned so much from the classes. I know this will sound crazy but I am so glad Jesus put me here so I could learn more about him and get closer to him. I want to say thank you for the opportunity to join all the classes. They do make a difference. I know to give glory to God but you did your part. Thank you to all the men and women who followed their call. I will never forget this experience in a good way. Keep doing good work.”
We know we won’t always hear from everyone who has been impacted by the NCC, but we know God uses our organization and the people involved for His mighty works. Sometimes we plant the seed, sometimes we water the seed, and sometimes we support the growth. But we couldn’t reach so many people with the Gospel without your support. The volunteers, donors, staff, and board members make a huge difference in the community.
