    Dégagé Ministries - Heartside of Downtown

    Our responsive programming is designed to address immediate and long-term needs such as overnight respite for women in crisis, food, referral services and hygiene facilities. Dégagé’s goal is to assure that every man and woman who we serve knows that he/she is not alone. Many hardships exist in life and none of us are exempt from them. For those 400-500 individuals, we serve daily at Dégagé, many of whom are homeless and low-income, the hardships can be overwhelming—loss of shelter, loss of employment, loss of a loved one, loss of control and loss of opportunity. And with these hardships, they lose much more. Many feel unworthy and hopeless, especially after society has looked down upon them or they have been rejected after repeatedly trying to move forward on their own.

    H.U.G.S. Ranch - The Spirit on the Ranch

    H.U.G.S. Ranch's mission is to encourage mental, emotional, physical, and social healing to hurting children and rescued, unwanted, or donated equines by allowing them to share together in experiencing Hope, Understanding, Guidance, and Support in a no-cost, safe, Christian environment. Each session pairs one child with a horse, wrangler and mentor.  During their one-hour session, each child is given a horse. They spend time doing light chores, grooming, riding, exploring their faith and just spending great one on one time together.  In addition to our one on one sessions, we also provide large group sessions. You can help by donating financially or through your time - https://www.hugsranch.org/donate & https://www.hugsranch.org/volunteer  Call 616-312-5254 or email hugsranch2006@gmail.com to find out more information. Is God prompting you because something happened to you that wounded your heart. . . or to someone you know? Do you want to help others come to peace and heal because of it? Become a part of our ministry. . . It is a special one.

    Bridge Street Ministries - Hope in the West Side

    The West Side of Grand Rapids is a place with a rich history, robust culture, raw grittiness, and beautiful people.  It is the place where we work, live, play and worship, and there is a lot to celebrate in our neighborhood.  At the same time, there are many people here that have endured a lot of hardship and neglect.  And it is in this space between beauty and brokenness that God has called Bridge Street Ministries to build a bridge between the streets and the church, bringing shalom to chaos. Ryan Waalkes is the Executive Director at Bridge Street Ministries and has been faithfully serving for the past 14 years. You can help volunteer and find out more information by emailing info@bsmgr.org or visiting their website at https://bsmgr.org/
