Pushing Back The Darkness
Coming together to fight Addiction. Drugs. Human Trafficking. Homelessness. Incarceration.
Practical Call to Action
Rather than simply addressing hunger after it occurs, God’s Outreach focuses on providing consistent support and resources to individuals and families throughout Madison and Estill Counties. Through programs such as emergency food assistance, the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) for seniors, and the Backpack Program for local students, God’s Outreach works to ensure that those facing food insecurity have access to nutritious meals and essential resources. Serving approximately 1,700 families in Madison County and 800 families in Estill County, along with providing food assistance to around 180 seniors and thousands of weekend food backpacks for students, God’s Outreach continues to strengthen the community through compassion, outreach, and service.
Their vision is simple: Making sure families across Madison and Estill Counties have access to the food they need.

People Within Our Community Are Suffering
When community bonds weaken, it can impact the collective ability to address social issues effectively.
“And let us consider one another in order to provoke love and good works, not neglecting to gather together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging each other...” Hebrews 10:24-25a
