Ministry Overview

Food Ministry

The food ministry is about helping those that are hurt or sick and can’t help themselves. This ministry prepares and delivers meals to people who have just gotten out of the hospital or who have just lost a loved one. This gives this team a chance to minister to these folks’ physical needs and show them the love of Christ.

Bus Ministry

Our bus ministry reaches out to help those who need a ride to church. These are people who otherwise would have not been able to receive the ministry care they needed. Bus ministry team members dedicate their lives to caring about people and sharing the good news of Jesus Christ. “Then the Master said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, that My house may be filled.”-Luke 14:23

Our Bus Ministry provides transportation each week to the following services:

  • Sundays at 10:30 a.m.
  • Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m.

If you need transportation, bus schedules are available at the Welcome Center at church, or call (270) 683-4200 for schedule information.

Counseling

Although Church Alive does not employ professional counselors, staff members are available to offer assistance from the Word of God in English or Spanish. While we know that the best counsel is available while attending regular church services and listening to the teaching of God’s Word, sometimes one-on-one sessions are a necessity.

To schedule a counseling appointment, please call the church office at (270) 683-4200.

Food Pantry

As a result of the generous giving of the Church Alive church family and donations from other organizations and businesses, needy families are provided with much needed food and also spiritual encouragement. Jeff & Brenda Jeffrey, our Food Pantry directors, have devoted much of their lives to meeting the needs of the hungry.

To receive food at Church Alive, simply visit one of our regular adult services where a staff member can help you and arrange for you to receive free food after the service has ended.
