MONTHLY OUTREACH INITIATIVES

SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH OUTREACH MINISTRY

The Outreach Ministry is a collaborative effort between all the ministries of Shiloh Baptist Church of Landover. A Deacon or Minister is assigned by the Pastor to be the coordinator of the ministry. A ministry will be assigned a month during the year to take the lead on an outreach activity and at least 2-4 other ministries will be assigned to assist the lead ministry in carrying out its outreach activity. The intent is to get all of Shiloh involved in participating in an outreach activity in the community during the year.

The SBC Outreach Initiative for the month of April 2024

 

For the April Outreach, Shiloh will collect donations for the residents of the Transition Center of the Prince George’s House. The Prince George’s House is a 36-bed men’s shelter in Capital Heights, MD. The residents at the Prince George’s House range in age from 17 to 73 years old. They are veterans, young adults who have aged out of the foster care system, citizens returning from incarceration, and men who are simply down on their luck. We are asking members of Shiloh to assist the residents of the Prince George’s House by donating men’s T-Shirts of all sizes, laundry detergent, bleach, Clorox wipes, all-purpose cleaners, disinfectant cleaners, and paper plates, cups, and bowls.
These items may be dropped off each week in the outreach bin located in the foyer area of the church. Your donations go a long way in helping others and are truly appreciated.
For questions, please contact outreach@shilohbc.org.
