Showers
Access to Hygene
Something many people take for granted is access to running water. When Vigilant Hope first began talking to people who faced homelessness we learned that a lack of access to showers was a huge problem in Wilmington, NC. So we launched a shower trailer to provide hygiene supplies and hot showers throughout the week.

Meals
Breaking Bread Together
We threw away the idea of a soup kitchen and decided instead to focus on family meals. We gather around the table as a community to eat and share our lives together.
These happen:
Saturdays from 8am-10am
Lake Forest Baptist Church (1626 Lake Branch Drive)
Thursdays a potluck from 6pm-7:30pm
20 S. 16th St. Bring a dish or a willingness to set up/clean up.
Bible Study and Prayer
Thursdays at 5pm we offer a Bible study for anyone who wants to grow in the Word of God together.
20 S 16th St
