The ministry provides many of the items that people need to live on the street: clothing, backpacks, shoes, blankets, toiletries, etc. The main purpose of the ministry is to bring the good news of Jesus to the lost and hurting. There is praise and worship and a message given each week after the meal by different volunteers.
