Helping Meet Community Needs

The Master's Touch

About the Master's Touch
The Master’s Touch was born in the hearts of local pastors as they gathered weekly to pray for the spiritual needs of the people of Sneads Ferry. The fruit of these prayers was more than just the encouragement of the Pastors, God also opened the way for their congregations to begin connecting with each other to impact their community.
Sneads Ferry churches stepped out in faith by conducting the Tent Revival of 2010, and other annual events: Unity Easter Sunrise Services, Operation In As Much, the Blessing of the Fleet, Unity Thanksgiving Services, and The Celebration of Light. Through these successful efforts, one ministry area continued to burden the pastors’ hearts and minds – Crisis Ministry.
Their prayer focused on God’s leadership for a more effective and coordinated vehicle to address the immediate and ongoing needs of those in the community who would come seeking food, guidance, and financial assistance. The vision of The Master’s Touch was finally coming into view: A non-profit organization established, supported, and staffed by the churches of Sneads Ferry to meet the needs of those in crisis in the Name of Jesus Christ.
