This ministry’s founder Pastor John Leonard Harris has been serving people in need for over 15 years through the parent organization, Encouragement Unlimited, Inc. Pastor Harris believes that his purpose is to use his gift as an "encourager" to bring people to Jesus and glory to God. The key is the church!

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The goal of organization is to impress upon people in all realms and spheres of life that we gain more as a society when people are able to realize their goals and have others who will be partners in the process. We want to build an "army of encouragers," people who every day make a conscious effort to add and offer encouragement to others (verbally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, socially).
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We have several methods of sharing our message.
1.) Our HELP NETWORK allows us to hear from people in need and match them with those who are able to help.
2.) Our Entrepreneur Support Program allows us the opportunity to offer Android tablets as a way to provide new business owners with a way to be portable and receive payments online.
3.) Our Ada Robinson Scholarship Program allows us the opportunity to provide financial support to students seeking higher education.
4.) Our ENCOURAGEMENT WRISTBAND program allows us the privilege of sharing our message (ENCOURAGE SOMEONE TODAY!) with people around the world.
5.) We mobilize people of like interest to share their time helping one another in the ways that are helpful, meaningful and productive.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
