Outreach Ministry
Serving our city with practical help and sharing the hope of Jesus wherever we go.
About Outreach Ministry
A church that only gathers is only half a church. Reach Aurora takes what happens on Sunday out into the neighbourhoods, shelters, schools and streets of our city — with groceries in hand and prayer on our lips.
We do not serve to be seen. We serve because we were served first, and because our city is worth showing up for.
Why Reach Aurora Exists
To be a visible, practical blessing to the city of Aurora — meeting real needs with real help, and sharing the hope of Jesus in word and in deed.
“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”Matthew 5:16
Who This Ministry Is For
- Anyone who wants to serve — no experience or church membership needed.
- Families looking for a meaningful way to serve together.
- People with practical skills: driving, cooking, building, admin, languages.
- Anyone who prays and wants to pray on the streets of their own city.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have a question that is not answered here? We would genuinely rather you asked than wondered.
Do I need to commit every month?
No. Some volunteers come every month, others come twice a year. Both matter. Sign up for the dates that work and we will let you know what is needed.
Can my children serve with me?
Yes, and we love it when they do. Packing days are suitable from around age 7 with a parent. Street teams are for 16 and over.
I cannot volunteer but I want to help.
Giving and prayer carry this ministry as much as the hands do. You can give towards outreach on our Give page, or join the prayer list through the form below.
How do you decide who to help?
We work through established local partners — shelters, schools and community organisations — who know their neighbourhoods far better than we do and tell us where the real need is.
