The HOPE of Life Outreach Project is the heart of our mission to love and serve others, spiritually and practically. Overseen and founded by Pastor Jessie Herring, this initiative was born from a dream God placed on her heart as a teenager. Today, it serves the Springfield, IL community with compassion, dignity, and care.
Through community meals, weekly backpack food giveaways, mentorship, and seasonal outreach events, we share the message of Christ while addressing real-life challenges such as hunger, housing instability, and emotional or spiritual need.
We believe that hope is more than a feeling; it’s an action. It’s prayer, food, love, and presence. Through HOPE, we extend the table to anyone in need.
The HOPE of Life Outreach is open to anyone in need of food, encouragement, or assistance.
We serve:
Families with children
Seniors and single adults
Women in transition
Homeless individuals
Youth in the juvenile detention system
No one is turned away. We believe everyone deserves to be fed, supported, prayed for, and treated with respect and kindness.
You can partner with the HOPE Project in several meaningful ways:
Volunteer your time for food giveaways, Sunday meal service, or outreach events
Donate non-perishable food, hygiene items, or financial gifts
Help Spread the Word by sharing our mission, events, and needs with your community
Pray for the individuals we serve and for God’s continued provision
Together, we are Helping Others through Prophetically Empowered service—bringing hope where it’s needed most.
