SideWalk Sunday School 

This is an outreach program that allows Solid Rock Ministries to go out into four different residential sites in Baltimore city, as well as one in Harford County and serve over 350+ children and adults. Pastor Ed speaks to the heart of the youth, on their level, about current issues relative to youth development. 



Mentoring

Pastor Ed and Gloria mentor approximately two dozen children, their siblings, and parents on a one-to-one basis all throughout the week by exposing after school activities, continuing education opportunities, job training, and solving moral dilemmas through spiritual counseling and prayer. Standing in for parents, we transport youth to job interviews, colleges for "Parent Tour Days", assist in completing college applications, grants, and scholarship applications, job applications, and hold mock interviews. 



The Ministry House

The Ministry House is where teams are housed and furniture, linens, food, and clothing donations are stored until distribution to the needy. Throughout the year, teams ranging in size from 10-50 come from all areas of the world to learn more about 'street ministry' by shadowing Pastor Ed on the streets of Baltimore.
