The Paris Foundation

Through its Matthew Project, TPF coordinates a nightly meal at 229 S. Bridge Street in Elkton, served by volunteers from a number of different churches. Over 100 homeless and working poor folks are fed, prayed with, and encouraged in Jesus' name. Tents, sleeping bags, and other survival gear are collected and distributed, along with seasonal clothing, shoes, and personal hygiene items. Bibles and Christian literature are always welcomed. Other projects include Faith Works (community service opportunities), Good Ground (evangelism, discipleship, fellowship, and worship), and Leslie House (transitional residential program for a family in need).
