Making a Difference

STEP Ministries has made a REAL difference since it began in 1986. How real?

Real Legacy

Since its inception in 1986, STEP Ministries has invested in thousands of under-resourced youth through mentoring and tutoring. Now there is a third generation of children in the STEP program.

Real Commitment

Our partner churches have been focusing and mobilizing their congregations to serve the children and families through the in-school Encourager program and neighborhood mentoring center model consistently for decades.

God is making an undeniable difference in this community through STEP Ministries!

         I can’t put into words how much it meant to have a mentor who was there to listen and be nonjudgmental. I don’t know where I would have ended up without STEP.

          I had gone to church as a child, but I didn’t really understand anything about what it meant to have a real relationship with God until I came to STEP…It’s hard living on my own, but I feel that I have what it takes to make it because I still have a relationship with God.
