Nehemiah Construction

Nehemiah Construction was started by Ed Domagal and his partner.  Their construction company takes young men off the street and teaches them work ethic and job skills.  As they spend the time in instruction, they disciple them by introducing them to the saving grace of JESUS CHRIST.   Over and above job training, they will teach them how to live a CHRIST-honoring life as they disciple them, which is the most important part of their job training.  Pastor Ed is the perfect man to disciple the young men.  He has been mentoring young men for years through his street preaching ministry.  Along with discipleship he will be teaching them good work ethic and skills.  I am looking forward to Pastor Ed being a part of our team.  He is a man of integrity and character, something very much lacking in today’s world.

Greater Chicago Food Depository

Greater Chicago Food Depository is our largest provider of food (and one of the largest in the country).  They have been with us since the beginning.  Beside the food we have a great opportunity to partner with them on a much larger scale.  We told the CFO that we were looking for a larger venue and they told us that when we get a place, they would like to help us turn our food pantry and family feeding center into state of the art facilities by supplying walk-in coolers and freezers, sinks, stoves, prep tables, tables and chairs and whatever else they could get donated.  I  can’t wait to see how the LORD is going to use this great organization to raise up this Englewood community from the depravity that exists into the hardworking, family-oriented neighborhood it was.

Shepherd’s Hope

The Food Pantry opened in 2009 and now touches the lives of over 6,000 per month. Food Pantry Hours: Tuesday and Thursday 10:00 am – 2:00 pm.  Clients may visit the pantry two times each month to receive a supplemental supply of food. Registration is required.

As Shepherd’s Hope was completing its 6th year at the food pantry, the  need for a place where people in the community could get a hot meal and the desire for further opportunity to engage in more conversation led to the opening of The Family Feeding Center on April 23, 2014.  The Family Feeding Center hours are Monday through Friday from 1pm to 5pm.

Both the Pantry and Family Feeding Center are housed in The Center of Englewood located at 838 W Marquette Road.

Brian’s role is to make sure all the food and supplies are available and to coordinate the overall operations of the Center.

Pass-it-on-Academy

Pass-it-on-Academy is a daycare ministry.  It was co-founded by the first community volunteer to serve at Shepherd’s HOPE.  Darryl Coleman and his wife Teresa started this ministry to help single mothers that need daycare and cannot afford to pay the going rate.  The most important aspect of this ministry is the way the staff shows the LOVE of JESUS to every child that enters the doors of this ministry.  The LORD took Darryl home about 4 years ago.  Because of HIS leadership, Teresa is still loving these kids.  In my heart of hearts ministries like Pass-it-on-Academy is the ministry most needed to change the heart of a community.  I am so proud that they are a part of our team.
