This is the purpose of Guidance Ministries.

🍽️ No one should have to wonder where their next meal is coming from.

At God's Kitchen, part of Guidance Ministries, we serve hot take-out or dine-in suppers to individuals, families, seniors, and anyone in need throughout the Elkhart community.

Whether you're facing a difficult season, stretching your budget, caring for loved ones, or simply could use a helping hand, there's a place for you at the table. ❤️

đź“Ť 216 N 2nd St, Elkhart, IN 46516

Every meal we serve twice a week is more than food—it's kindness, encouragement, hope, and God's love in action.

If you know someone who could benefit from a warm meal, please share this post. Together, we can help care for our community, one meal at a time. 🙏

Ready to make a difference while gaining valuable experience?

Guidance Ministries is currently seeking applicants from the SCSEP (Senior Community Service Employment Program) to be assigned to our ministry. The SCSEP program offers paid training, supportive mentorship, and hands-on experience to help participants build valuable workplace skills while serving their community.

If assigned to Guidance Ministries, participants will have the opportunity to develop caseworker skills that help individuals and families work toward stable housing, personal goals, and long-term success.

No previous experience is needed—the SCSEP program provides training and support to help you grow and succeed.

To learn more or apply for the SCSEP program, contact WorkOne and ask for the SCSEP Program Director. You may also call Pastor Lori at Guidance Ministries at (574) 296-7192 for additional information.

Summer is finally here, and with the warmer weather comes a greater need for cool, refreshing drinks in our community. We are currently collecting Kool-Aid packets to help provide a simple treat and a moment of comfort to the families and individuals who stop by.

Every donation, big or small, helps us share kindness and care with those we serve. Thank you for helping us make a difference, one cup at a time! đź’›

We’re happy to offer a selection of grocery items that are slightly past their best-by dates but still perfectly good to enjoy!

These extra items are available along with your regular food pantry box while supplies last. Our goal is to make sure good food goes to good use and helps support families in our community.

Food pantry hours are Tuesdays from 12:00 PM–3:30 PM at Guidance Ministries.

Please bring a photo ID for adults in the household, proof of residency in Elkhart County, and some form of identification for children in the household (such as a birth certificate, medical card, or school document).

If you visit during pantry hours, feel free to take what you can use — every little bit helps, and we’re grateful to share with our neighbors. 💛

We are incredibly grateful to every person who donated, volunteered, organized, and helped make this year’s drive possible. Your kindness will make a real difference for many families in our community.

Got an old phone you’re no longer using? Guidance Ministries is looking for new or gently used smartphones to help the people we work with stay connected. Many of those we counsel don’t have reliable access to a phone, which can make it hard to reach resources, keep appointments, stay in contact with support systems, or even take the next step toward getting back on their feet.

A simple phone can make a real difference. Chargers are appreciated, too, if you have them. If you’d like to donate or have questions, please reach out to Pastor Lori at (574) 296-7192. Thank you for helping us support and encourage people in our community!
