Outreach Ministry Team

The purpose of the Outreach Team is to lead and enable the congregation to serve God and God's people in our community within and beyond our family of faith by sharing our beliefs, talents and resources. The team, through the generosity of Salem's membership, currently supports with our talents and resources the following.

• A special offering for the Kansas City Community Kitchen, which feeds 300 to 400 hungry people five days a week.
• Provides food and serves two Saturday meals at the Children's Memorial Lutheran Church Soup Kitchen.
• Monthly food drive for the Johnson County Human Services & Aging Food Pantry, which serves our immediate community.
• Coordinates Meals-on-Wheels deliveries, which are vital to our elderly community.
• Gathers and delivers items for SafeHome.
• A special offering for the children of the Oaks Indian Center to assist with basic needs of children living at the center.
• Gathers and delivers gifts received from our Annual Christmas in September for MLM Christmas Store.
• Organized walkers and contributors for the annual October Crop Walk, which helps fight hunger both in our own area and around the world.
• Provides benevolence monies to the Shawnee Community Center.
