Project 5 2 is a faith-based 501C3 distributor of food, clothing and supplies to those in need.
Touching lives across many states…
We are a conduit of redistribution of food, clothing, Bibles and supplies from God’s hand to front line ministries who sometimes don’t have the resources to feed and clothe those in need, in their communities. We co-serve, like Epaphroditus did for Paul in Philippians, chapter 2, bringing material offerings and the Good News of the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who are ministering the Gospel to the hurting and broken in their areas. We share resources across denominational lines and we receive product to redistribute in many ways, including picking up excess from multiple restaurants, sharing with churches and other ministries, donations from individuals, and we also receive directly from corporate sources.
In serving the Body of Christ in this capacity, ministries are encouraged with a renewed sense of purpose and our hope is that the Church’s focus turns to thinking outside the 4 walls, to serve those who would not necessarily walk into a church building. Because then, as we share the love of Jesus and provide materially to hurting people, we see souls coming to Christ, discipleship opportunities arise and the Church grows.
if you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday. And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; you shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to dwell in.
Isaiah 58:10-12 (ESV)
How?
We focus on gathering these 3 types of provisions. . .
Provisions include bread, snacks, fresh fruits and veggies and restaurant food.
Serving many across several states (OH, KY, IN, PA, WV, VA, TN)
We collect several new and used translations of the Bible from donations, such as KJV, NIV, ESV and children’s Bibles that go out with every delivery. Romans 1:16: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also the Greek.”
We prioritize and distribute to those in extreme poverty. Sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in the process.
Going out weekly to bring Hope to the hopeless, Encouragement to the downtrodden, and the Love of God to those who have never experienced it in the power and name of Jesus Christ.
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
