OUTREACH & MISSIONS

Let's be the hands and feet of Jesus in our community & world.

Here at Eastside, we support both local outreach in our community and global outreach around the world. We have a variety of ways for you to get involved throughout the year, including food drives, giving trees, serve days, and so much more! We invite you to join us in supporting our neighbors in need and our global missionaries.

Every Sunday you can also support our outreach ministries by purchasing an amazing drink from our Eastside Café! All profits support our missions and outreach fund.

PARTNERS

LOCAL OUTREACH

Ministries, events, and opportunities throughout the year to serve our local community and share the love of Jesus.

Outdoor Food Pantry

Year round we provide shelf-stable food and supplies to our neighbors in need through an outdoor food pantry. Whether a need for food or supplies, outdoor pantries help support tangible needs of families and individuals.

Want to partner with us by donating supplies? Keep an eye out for one of our food drives or contact our Local Outreach Director Alysha to learn more.

SHOPPING LIST

Community Serve Day

Community Serve Day is an annual event every August where local churches, schools, non-profits and businesses come together for our community. For one day, we all set aside our regular Sunday activities to help our schools prepare for the coming year by helping set up classrooms, making improvements to the campuses and more.

Season of Giving

Every year in November, we set aside the month for a season of giving. During this time, we partner with local organizations such as Vision House, UGM, Kokanee Elementary School, and more to meet the tangible need of families in our community. There are several ways you can get involved, including picking out a gift tag to donate gifts to families in need and donating outdoor clothing for our unhoused neighbors.

Engaging Homelessness Workshop

This training from Seattle's Union Gospel Mission provides foundational information and includes insights from experts, real-life stories from formerly homeless individuals that show that change is possible, and a Q&A time. We want each attendee to walk away with a deeper understanding of homelessness and actionable steps to take. Check out our events page to see if we have an upcoming training.

Annual Mexico Mission with YWAM

Homes of Hope

Each year, individuals and families from Eastside go to Rosarito, Mexico to participate in YWAM’s Homes of Hope during the week of Thanksgiving. You can make a lasting difference, not only in the life of a family but in the lives of your group. Over the week we build homes for families in need and on Thanksgiving Day share a meal with 150 new friends at a local orphanage. This is an amazing opportunity for individuals or the whole family, no construction experience is required!
