Christmas Toy Give Away
At the Branch Brook Park skating rink, we hosted an outreach to give away free Christmas gifts to over 200 children in our community.

Christian Sports Camp
- We took 30 youth from Newark to a Christian Sports camp in Redhook, NY. Here kids gave their lives to the Lord, drew closer to God, and had fun!
- Experiences in their own words:
– “I always thought I was too dirty and sinful to be a Christian, but now I know that Jesus meets me right where I am.”
– “When I came to camp I didn’t believe in Jesus, but that has changed, now I believe in Him.”
Mighty Oaks Pre-School
- Our preschool, Mighty Oaks, is at full capacity! We have just graduated another class.
Global Day of Prayer
- On the global day of prayer, we joined with our fellow churches in Newark for a day of multi-cultural celebration, worship, and prayer in Newark’s Branch Brook Park.
- Praying for souls at our annual Stations of the Cross march up a main artery of Newark, N.J. We march up South Orange Ave. in Newark, while praising the Lord, preaching to the lost, and praying for the community.
City-Wide Spiritual Engagement
- We joined with over 60 churches, community organizations, and the city of Newark to bring the gospel and needed services to our community. During this outreach we handed out free food, gave medical screenings, and had a job fair for those in the community
