RAHAB

Street Outreach
We take God to the streets and give Him a face. Every Friday night we walk the streets of Akron and visit strip clubs to build relationships and pray with the women we meet. At first they may dread our unexpected appearances, but if we skip a Friday…they miss us!

Jail Outreach
When a woman is arrested she is literally “stopped and set at rest” from her normal life circumstances. Incarceration can be a time of shame, fear and loss. We choose to bring the positive message of hope, healing and life transformation as we encourage women through prayer, fellowship, Biblical instruction classes and chapel services.

Bible Study
This is a natural continuation of our commitment to our clients. In Bible study we all learn together as we seek the counsel of God’s Word and discover the instructions He has for our lives. The women begin to experience the safety of community and comfort of belonging.

Soup 'N Shop
“Shop” meets their physical need for clothing from our Clothing Closet. During “Soup” these women experience, some for the first time, the intimacy and vulnerability of shared meal.

RAHAB House (Ministry Center)
The House is located in the center of our troubled neighborhood, and in it we create community. Many of the women have never enjoyed friendship or sisterhood with other women. Most have lost families because of their addictions. The House is a haven of safety and love for the women, where they can simply be themselves. They love being there!
