Think about not having a home…
Not having access to hot water…

A safe place to shower is coveted when you live on the streets! GET CLEAN enables individuals to have access to clean clothing, hygiene items, a hot shower, and lunch.

Once we help them “GET CLEAN” on the outside, we are able to share the HOPE that is found in the Gospel about how they can “GET CLEAN” from the inside out. We also provide local resources to help individuals out of their circumstances.

Something as simple as a hot shower can help restore dignity and hope to someone on the streets. Be a part of this incredible ministry at Freeway! Help us show the love of Christ to others.

GET CLEAN runs every Tuesday from April – September. Partner with us financially, donating hygiene items and new undergarments, or by volunteering. For more information contact us at information@freeway-ministries.org

We’ve all seen the negative impact that drugs and alcohol can make on the community. But have you ever seen the positive impact one radically changed addict can make?

You do not want to miss these dynamic 3 days! We will have recovery resource groups, incredible worship led by WeRCalled, unbelievable testimonies, and a challenging message from the Word of God brought to you by John Stroup, Executive Director of Freeway Ministries.

Saturday morning, September 9th at 9 am, we will meet at 1350 N. Boonville Ave for a one mile walk around downtown Springfield, where we will stop and pray at the Greene County Courthouse. This is such an encouraging time. It’s a moment to praise God for delivering us from our past and looking with anticipation for the future while showing our local community that WE DO RECOVER!!

This is open to anyone who wishes to attend. Our goal is to bridge the gap between the local church and the homeless and recovery community. If you’ve ever wondered how you can make a difference in your own backyard, don’t miss out! We are trusting God for a huge impact in our community. Freeway Ministries is committed to reaching the hard to reach with the Gospel or Jesus Christ, ONE BROKEN LIFE AT A TIME.
