Petra Project

Petra Project Incorporated

Text Box: Every community has a population of those in need, and ours is no exception. Many local agencies, churches and organizations endeavor to meet these, but the needs change and the result is a void where needy people are left needy. Petra Project is a non-profit Christian organization that seeks to fill voids in our community. Our operating budget is comprised of gifts and donations from the community and through grant monies. All of the donations collected for Petra Project are used for operational expenses.

Siloam Wellness Center:

This area of ministry is to meet wellness needs in our community. This will initially mean educational meetings for people with questions concerning health care issues. They will be taught by qualified nurses, doctors or technicians. We now have opened the free clinic that is a part of the Siloam initiative. To date, 8 area physicians and many nurses have volunteered in this clinic and we have seen more than 700 patients.

The Clint Belcher House of Recovery:

Our area is in need of a Christ-based addiction program that provides intensive care and instruction in living that will give men with addiction problems a clean living base to build their lives on. Belcher House will be a live-in program with 24 hour assistance that will provide that base. Powered by ‘Turning Point’ ministry curriculum and Teen Challenge training courses, trained personnel will administer the program along with on sight living skill training in a structured 24/7 format. This program is due to open soon.

Bread Basket:

Free meals are provided every day in Richmond around noon in different locations and by different groups and organizations. However, there is not an evening meal provided anywhere. Bread Basket provides nutritional meals in the evening (4:30 to 6:00 pm) and on Sunday afternoons (12:30 to 2:00 pm). Other groups and churches combine to staff our kitchen for this provision. Staff is all volunteers.

Bread Basket is funded by people like you and by the following foundations…
