Tent Minstries

TENT Ministries, Inc. began its 12-month long initiative called Healthy Heart Bushwick in November of 2023. The program provided fresh produce to food insecure men and women within the Bushwick community, encouraging the use of food as medicine. One hundred and fifty participants struggling with hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and/or heart disease were provided with groceries weekly. We also provided free wellness, cooking, and fitness classes to participants and followed their health outcomes throughout the program. We also worked with local organizations to rescue and deliver food maximizing the impact of the program. The 12-month program ran from November of 2023 through November of 2024. At the programs end, 31,200 meals were distributed, 40,000 pounds of food was redistributed, and 150 families were served.

TENT Ministries, Inc. hosted several programs throughout the year, operating as a mobile food pantry to rescue and deliver thousands of pounds of food, as well as other resources and essentials, to the marginalized population in Bushwick, Brooklyn. These events included our annual Easter Egg Hunt community event, our annual Thanksgiving community event, our annual Back to School outreach, an NYPD Appreciation Luncheon, a Summer Festival, a Christmas outreach, a New Years outreach, family shelter outreaches, weekly church services along with childrens programming, community baptisms, and numerous community feedings in Bushwick as well as other communities across the 5 boroughs. We partnered with numerous organizations, local precincts, churches, and individuals to bring these resources to these high-need areas in NYC.

TENT Ministries, Inc. hosted its Mexico missions in February of 2024. We visited orphanages and womens shelters in Tijuana and Rosarito, Mexico, to provide spiritual care to the children, women, and staff. We also made progress on the construction of our missionary campsite in Rosarito.
