Especially when working with homeless individuals, one essential area in which we will work extensively is helping people get proper credentials (birth certificate, Social Security card, driver’s license) to get a job and a more permanent housing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1754758833681-0CYWFTANAX496L83SISA/unsplash-image-aIRBGPafi74.jpg Home - Jail Ministry We are partnering with the Brown County Sheriff’s Department in jail ministry. The results are powerful. In doing so, we are finding incarcerated men and women looking for resources, guidance, or temporary housing after their release. Many are provided with the opportunity to take a path for good, rather than fall back to old, habitual ways. In addition, the jail ministry has led to a cooperative relationship with probation and parole service offices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1754758997334-AZSOU28UTIKXOJ31E8EH/unsplash-image-mrSuM73pmsw.jpg Home - Housing Our primary area of ministry is providing temporary & transitional housing for people in need. Currently, there are few options for immediate housing for homeless people in our community. We want to Step Up and fill in the gap, then work with existing agencies to help transition people out of short-term housing and into more permanent accommodations. https://www.aberdeenstepup.com/our-ministries daily 0.75 2022-06-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1654531133510-4ODL21DYL66NYBR499MA/unsplash-image-s9CC2SKySJM.jpg Our Ministries - Life Skills Additional goals are to assist our clients with life skills, including budgeting skills and well as cooking, cleaning, and shopping skills to save money. Another skill is to increase empathy by giving back to the community. One area we will work extensively in is getting helping people get proper credentials to be able to get a job and a more permanent place to live. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1654531078429-LQWQYQIK2B0YO0CFVMKL/unsplash-image-CwTfKH5edSk.jpg Our Ministries - Housing Another area of ministry is to provide additional resources in the community to assist the homeless, by assisting existing agencies, such as Journey Home, Salvation Army and community churches who now are renting hotel rooms, by providing alternative housing for families in need. In this way, we will partner with these agencies to enable them to aid more people in other ways. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1654530984877-NNM4P8YMZEUQ6ABSTA2J/unsplash-image-iDCtsz-INHI.jpg Our Ministries - Clothing Our group plans to help children in the foster care program with new clothing, as well as providing other impoverished children with clothing, diapers, and other resources whose needs are not able to be met by SD Dept of Social Services. https://www.aberdeenstepup.com/donate daily 0.75 2025-07-03 https://www.aberdeenstepup.com/get-involved daily 0.75 2025-08-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1655135571967-5ES3KRZKAC9LL5JESKEB/unsplash-image-b_SHPU5M3nk.jpg Get Involved - Pray As we get this new Kingdom ministry started, we need your prayers that God would work and move on behalf of people in our community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62996ca0d6a4a231ac5c05c1/1655135379445-G78D8X4HZ26UPFSBDQ5E/unsplash-image-fJTqyZMOh18.jpg Get Involved - Donate Your financial gift can have a huge impact on the lives of people in our community!
